“I believe this is the one I have. They had to discontinue one of the nilgiris and replace it with another. This is a backlog; somehow, I’ve had this tea three times and never managed to log it....” Read full tasting note

Description

“This fine organic black tea is produced at the Iyerpadi Estate in the Nilgiris District of southern India. Tea from this Fair Trade Certified estate replaces our previous Nilgiri tea from the Korakundah Estate. The Iyerpadi Estate Nilgiri FOP organic loose tea is composed of similarly twisted leaves of uniform size and deep brown color. As is typical of high-quality organic tea from India, the infusion offers a straightforward but delicate flavor, floral and brisk.

Tip: This tea is particularly suited to iced tea preparation as it resists clouding more than most.

“We at Arbor Teas firmly believe that tea should be brewed to suit your personal taste. With that being said, here are some recommendations to get you started, but please remember you can make adjustments based on your own personal taste.

There are three main considerations when brewing tea: quantity of tea, water temperature and steeping time.

Quantity of tea: one generous teaspoon per 8 oz cup of water

Water temperature: use water that has been heated to a full rolling boil (212° F)

Steeping time: 3-5 minutes"
