Description

A bold, brisk tea from the Kangra district with a slight vegetal taste, and a nutty aroma that is enriched with floral and spicy undertones.
Adventurous sipping! A unique tea from the legendary (Kim, by Rudyard Kipling) Kangra District, that lies 1,500+m above sea level in Northwest India. This tea’s strong suite is the complex, appealing aroma given off by a lovely infusion. Every cup yields a complex blend of flavours and aromas that simulates, but does not duplicate, that of Darjeeling. Definitely a creditable effort from a region that used to make mostly green teas for several years that were exported to the Middle East!
