This was in the big tea box from Youngest – many thanks!

I have had this a number of times now. I like Nepali teas in general and while this one isn’t bad, it is not my favorite. I tried making it different ways. Based on the name I thought it was going to be a really strong breakfast tea but it steeped ip quite pale. I realized it is probably named for a place and not for its characteristics!

I tried overleafing it next time and it came out a bit drying. This time I made two steeps and combined them, with boiling water and four minutes for the first steep then five minutes for the second.

Again, it isn’t a bad tea, it just isn’t doing anything to make me want it more than another tea on shelf. I don’t it is a milk and sugar tea, either, but I may finish it as a sweet iced tea and see how it goes.

Bio

I am a music teacher, tutor, and former homeschool mom (25 years!) who started drinking loose leaf tea about fifteen years ago! My daughters and I have tea every day, and we are frequently joined by my students or friends for “tea time.” Now my hubby joins us, too. His tastes have evolved from Tetley with milk and sugar to mostly unadorned greens and oolongs.

We have learned so much history, geography, and culture in this journey.

My avatar is a mole in a teacup! Long story…
