About Nepali Tea

Nepal’s tea gardens sit in the foothills and mid-hills of the Himalayas, often at elevations that rival neighboring Darjeeling across the border. The high altitude, cool nights and mineral-rich soil slow the tea plant’s growth, which many tea drinkers believe concentrates flavor and aroma in each leaf. Small farms and estates across eastern Nepal hand-pick and process much of this tea using techniques refined over generations.

Why Choose This Basanta Black?

• Genuine loose leaf tea: Full leaves rather than dust or fannings, for a fuller cup.
• Himalayan origin: Grown in Himalayan tea gardens in Nepal.
• Distinctive black tea: This carefully made loose leaf black tea has a bright aroma and satisfying body.
• Resealable pack size: Comes in a 100g pack sized for freshness.
