Description

Vibrant and robust, this organically grown black tea is a delightful blend of spring harvests that reveals a complex aromatic spectrum combining floral, herbal and almond characteristics.

Darjeeling holds a place among the world's most esteemed tea growing regions, with much of its prestige derived from its spring harvests. These provide a fresh quality reminiscent of green tea while simultaneously retaining the tannic depth inherent to black teas, a distinction found nowhere else.

Brimming with buds, Himalayan Flower serves as an excellent breakfast companion. Its bright, refined aromatic character also renders it an outstanding choice for afternoon tea.

Himalayan Flower originates from organic cultivation and carries certification from Ecocert, a recognised independent certifying body. With a pronounced inclination towards floral elements, organic Himalayan Flower provides an outstanding substitute for Grand Himalaya, whose market availability will shortly cease.
