Nepali Gold

Available from Perennial Tea Room when we last checked, in the last two days. Sold from the shop’s own store; the price there is the one that counts.

Produced on the Teenjure Estate in Nepal, this rich black tea is smooth and full-bodied. The farmers incorporate the bud and first two leaves of the tea plant, leading to an abundance of beautiful golden tips. These tips give the tea its name and unique honey-chocolate sweetness. While rich and complex in taste, this tea lacks heavy tannins or the dry mouth-feel typical black tea. The smoothness of this tea highlights its subtle chocolate undertones and makes it eminently drinkable. Nepali Golde
