Kumaon White: A fresh and bright organic white tea from one of India’s forgotten tea regions. This tea is harvested on small-scale farms in the early spring from bushes that are nearly 200 years old.
 
Tasting Notes: “What does white tea taste like?” is a question many people ask. While minimal processing makes most white teas delicate-bordering-on-flavorless, the Kumaon White has a full, juicy body and brightness that makes it shine. This Himalayan spring tea captures the clean and floral aromas of new growth. When steeped, the fully intact buds release notes of vegetal peeled cucumber alongside floral honeydew melon, with a lingering spicy-sweet cinnamon finish. Straddling what traditionally defines green and white teas, expect a floral smoothness with a fresh, clean, and bright finish. As the tea ages, it acquires more depth and smoothness, and the longer it ages, the better. So stock up to enjoy this tea for years to come! Lovers of White Peony (Bai Mudan) and Jasmine Green will likely enjoy this tea.
