Sourced from the Tea Mountains of the Eastern Himalayas of Nepal, this Top-notch Green Tea proudly represents a deeper flavor, a common quality in uncommon and unique Nepalese Himalayan terroir. We have had a lot of our patrons fall in love with the unfurling leaves that release springtime aroma with a sweet and juicy finish.

These beautiful forest green twisted tea leaves smell like sweet vanilla and buttered asparagus. When steeped a thick, lightly syrupy textured liquor is produced with a light pickle-juice-green hue is revealed. Swishing it around your mouth will tingle your taste buds with a subtle sweet jasmine and prickly herbaceous notes finishing up with a slightly dry but lingering sweet aftertaste throwing you into a meditative mood.

Preparation

We believe that tea drinking experience should be completely personal and liberating. There is no right or wrong way to brew tea. Individual taste buds are unique.Therefore we encourage tea lovers to not necessarily bind themselves with our methods but let their experience, contemplation and discovery be personal. After all, that is where the joy of drinking tea lies.. We believe that a tea drinker should try different variations of brewing methods, amount of tea, steeping time and water temperature to come to find the perfect taste they fall in love with.
