Himalayan Early Spring FF 2022 No.634

Amazing, unique First Flush black tea, a nice choice for the warm summer days. Energizing, inspiring, and always great as a morning beverage. It was harvested on the third day of the early spring Nepali tea harvest season, 2022.03.23.

This year we chose two First Flush black tea from the Jun Chiyabari tea garden, it is a great experience to compare them. We love the citrusy aroma and the elegant, uplifting mood of this nice black tea however, we also fell in love with the Himalayan Spring FF 2022‘s flowery notes.

Every Nepali tea we have originates from the organic Jun Chiyabari tea garden, located in the Himalayas around 1800 meters above sea level. Due to this clear-out area, in every tea, there lies a deep elation.

Tasting notes:
Steamed gaiwan: rounded citrusy notes
