NEPAL ILAM FIRST FLUSH, 2023

1.0 oz
$6.50

DESCRIPTION

    • Nepal Ilam First Flush is a type of black tea from the Ilam district in Nepal, which is known for its high-quality tea production. It is made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant and is harvested during the first flush, which is the first harvest of the season in spring. 

    • On the Nepalese side of the majestic Himalayas in the Antu Valley, just over the hill from the famous Darjeeling region, enterprising Nepalese planters have brought a delicately rich, high-mountain black tea to the world.

    • Nepal Ilam First Flush is known for its unique flavor and aroma, which is a combination of floral and fruity notes with a slight hint of spice. It has a light golden color and a smooth, delicate taste that is both refreshing and satisfying. 

  • This first-flush, made up of brown-green uniformly rolled leaves with a high content of silvery tips, easily rivals the freshest Darjeeling.

  • The tea leaves used to make Nepal Ilam First Flush are hand-picked and carefully processed using traditional methods. The tea is then graded based on its quality, with the highest grades reserved for the most premium teas.
