June Jasmine Green Tea Blend - Dried Jasmine | Citron | Wildflower Honey | Smooth | Sublime

Emerald Green is an aromatic and refined green tea with delicate, twisted emerald-hued leaves. Only the very first spring harvest is used to make this tea and all of the wonders of Nepali spring air are captured within its leaves. This tea has a sweet and slightly floral liquor with subtle notes of zucchini, dried gardenia, and almonds that are accented by subtle hints of steamed spinach and dried lily. It is a wonderful tea to enjoy throughout the day. 

The very first harvest is set aside for the production of our Emerald Green tea. Only the first bud and a leaf or the first two leaves and a bud of the spring season are selected to make this tea. The reason for this selection is to harness all the natural freshness of spring tea that comes out only at the beginning of the season. The hand-plucked leaves are immediately taken to the factory and undergo a process of conditioning. The leaves are then jet-steamed on a perforated tray and immediately cooled by blowing cold air. The cooled leaves are rolled and then oven-dried. This tea has a distinct spring briskness and a flowery aroma with a flavor that leaves you with a lingering sweet aftertaste.

Half Moon Pearl is a summer-picked green tea from Sandakphu that is shaped into striking half-moon pearls. Its vibrant amber liquor has fragrant notes of bean sprout, endive, and parsnip. As the tea is enjoyed, notes of artichoke and steamed spinach develop as the leaves unfurl. It is a wonderful, comforting afternoon tea.

This rare second-flush tea from Sandakphu is hand-picked from select tea bushes with high chlorophyll content and valuable antioxidants. One leaf and a bud are plucked and immediately placed in a withering truck in the fields with a supply of cold air. After one hour, the leaves go through a one-minute de-enzyme process, which halts the oxidation. The leaves are put into a roller, then a shaper, producing the beautiful half-moon pearls. 

Ilam Green is a vibrant, steamed green tea with gently twisted and curled leaves. The tea is made by jet steaming the leaves after they are withered in order to preserve their fresh and lively characteristics. It's light and refreshing liquor has notes of sweet butter lettuce and delicate baby arugula with hints of aromatic coriander, dried gardenia, and fresh asparagus. It can be enjoyed every day, by itself, or paired with a light meal. 

Baskets of finely plucked tea leaves, mainly two leaves, and a bud, are brought to the factory, and the tea leaves are then withered over a period of 4 to 6 hours, depending on the weather condition. The leaves are then jet-steamed for 60 to 80 seconds. Steamed leaves are transferred to netted troughs and cooled for over 4 hours. The cooled and tender leaves are then rolled for over 30 minutes and allowed to rest for 30 minutes. They are rolled and panned again simultaneously for over 15 minutes. The conditioned leaves are dried in an oven for over an hour, hand-sorted, and allowed to rest. The result is our steamed Ilam Green teas.
