Sikkim Temi 1st Flush Luxury Tea

Black Tea

Picked Spring 2010

Acclaimed as one of the best tea producers in India, the Temi Tea Garden is the only estate in the tiny Himalayan kingdom of Sikkim. It produces rare high-grown teas, similar to neighboring Darjeeling, but from distinctly younger bushes. The gorgeous looking leaves deliver a refined golden liquor with hints of ripe fruits.

Sikkim is an exceptional tea in a region that produces some of the most prized teas in the world. A unique climate at altitude and rich, loamy soils produce a flavour similar to the very best Darjeelings, with noticeably refined spice notes. Neatly twisted leaves yield an aromatic topaz liquor with hints of summer peaches, lingering fruity tones and a trace of characteristic Himalayan astringency. A 95 gram pack produces 63 cups at 3 grams per cup. The tea can be infused twice.
