Organic Darjeeling-Style Nepalese Black Tea (Single Estate Tin)

A single-estate black tea from Kathmandu, Nepal, grown in the Himalayan foothills at 1800m elevation. Full-bodied, malty, and naturally sweet, with notes of roasted barley, clover, and honey. Smooth without astringency, comforting without being heavy.

Why we like it

• Single-origin from one estate at 1800m in the Nepalese Himalayas; high-elevation tea has more complex flavor than lowland teas, and it shows
• Darjeeling-style without the Darjeeling price; same Himalayan terroir, just on the other side of the border
• Rich, malty, naturally sweet, no bitterness even with longer steeps; takes milk well but doesn't need it

Details

• Maker: August Uncommon Tea (Rare Leaves collection)
• Origin: Kathmandu, Nepal · 1800m elevation
• Size: 60g tin (about 17 servings, or 50+ with reinfusions) or 250g refill bag
• Best for: mornings, afternoon tea, anyone who loves Darjeeling or English Breakfast and wants to discover something deeper

How to enjoy

Steep 3.5g of leaves in 10oz of 195°F water for 5 minutes. Reinfuses 2-3 times. A splash of milk works beautifully but isn't necessary; the natural honey and malt notes carry the cup on their own.
