Himalayan Temi

Light and bright Darjeeling style, this tea from Temi must be tasted.
Such a complex tea, said to be some of the finest in the world.
Envelope your tastebuds in this tea and you will rethink the Darjeeling tea world.

But why Temi?

Temi Tea Gardens is found in South Sikkim, India. Nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas, offers a terrain these naturally grown tea plants thrive in.
These particular harvests are the earliest pluck of Temi, picked in the single day before a huge hail storm which halted production in April.
Teas from any subsequent pluck have been affected by the stress on the tea plants caused by this weather.

Teas mellow with age, especially in the first few months, so it will become smoother as time goes on.

Always interesting to discover how the taste profile of teas change, a journey worth experiencing.

Our airtight foil lined packs are a great container to store the young tea in as it locks in the aromatics within the leaves.
Also keeps out any strong smells which can taint the tea leaves.

This tea demonstrates just how incredible Darjeeling style teas can be.
