A smooth malty whole leaf black tea with lovely milk chocolate tones. It has been lovingly hand-crafted without the use of any machinery by local workers on their own small farm plots.

Recently, some of Manish’s workers have started producing hand-crafted teas from leaves grown on their own small farms utilising traditional processing techniques of hand-rolling the tea.
Although quantities produced are extremely limited due to the labouriously intensive nature of hand-processing teas, they have the advantage of exhibiting lots of character and nuances which would otherwise be lost in factory produced teas.
