Bold Himalayan Black Tea Meets Cooling Spearmint
Most mint teas are weak herbal infusions pretending to be tea.
This one is different. Entirely. Himalayan Spearmint Black Tea brings you premium loose leaf Nepal tea crafted from high elevation Himalayan black tea. Blended with fragrant spearmint leaves. Bold meets refreshing. Structure meets brightness.
The black tea base grows between 7,000 and 7,500 feet in Ilam. High altitude slows leaf growth naturally. This enhances structure and smooth malt depth. Eliminates harsh bitterness completely.
Spearmint adds clean cooling finish that brightens the cup. Never overpowering the tea. Just elevating it perfectly. The result is bold. Aromatic. Intensely refreshing. This is not herbal mint tea. This is structured black tea elevated by Himalayan spearmint.
A High Elevation Nepal Tea with Character
The black tea delivers robust body and warm malt undertones. The spearmint introduces clarity and lift.

Your refreshing Nepal tea. Always ready. Never running out.
Spearmint tea is crafted from the leaves of the spearmint plant, also known by its scientific name, Mentha Spicata. This tea is a flavorful mixture that incorporates the distinct and refreshing taste of spearmint.
This assortment of army green mint herbs mixed with Ilam black tea gives off a strong minty aroma when you open the pack. The liquor produced is rich resin/amber in color that is thick and brothy in texture. Tasting notes are quite dominated by the subtle notes of mint; followed by an almondy note that stays on your palate for a few minutes after consuming the tea.

Iced teas
Can you make sweet/ unsweet iced teas from loose-leaf teas?
Of course, you can! High-quality loose-leaf teas make the most refreshing iced teas—smooth, crisp, and oh-so-quenching!
While some might call it blasphemous to add sweetener/sugar to high-quality loose-leaf teas, here in Texas, where sweet iced tea is a beloved tradition, we have been using our loose-leaf to uplift the iced tea experience.
We have tried and perfected the art of turning your favorite loose-leaf tea into a delicious iced delight. It's time to try it for yourself. Here's how we do it:
Pro tip: Feel free to experiment with water amounts, temperature, steeping time, tea quantity, and sweetener quantity to find your perfect balance.
Steep suggestions for iced teas:
Amount of Water: 2 Liters Amount of Loose Tea: 10-12 grams (5-6 teaspoons) Steeping Time: 15-20 minutes Steeping Temperature: 190-200°F
Steps to Brew Iced Tea:
Step 1: Start with a 2-liter batch.
Boil water, then remove it from heat. Let it cool for 1-2 minutes until it's around 190-200°F.
Step 2: Add loose-leaf tea.
Add 10 to 12 grams of your favorite loose-leaf tea OR 5 to 6 teaspoons.
Step 3: Steep the tea.
Steep for 15-20 minutes (or longer if you prefer a stronger brew).
Step 4: Strain and cool.
Strain the tea, then let it cool down. Add ice.
(Pro tip: For best flavor, let it chill in the fridge for a few hours or overnight. Add ice when you drink.)
Step 5: Sweeten to taste.
Add your favorite sweetener, but remember that balance is key—don’t let the sweetener overpower the tea’s flavor. (Pro tip: As you sip, let the tea linger in your mouth for a couple of seconds to fully enjoy its rich flavors.)
