Located in South Asia, and bordered by China and India, Nepal is home to some of the largest mountains in the world, including Mount Everest which is the highest point anywhere on Earth. Nepal is comprised of 75 districts, one of which is the district of Dhankuta. Dhankuta, located in Eastern Nepal, borders the Darjeeling region of West Bengal, India, and enjoys the same soil and climatic conditions as Darjeeling.
This organic black tea comes from the Guranse Estate in Hile, Dhankuta and is grown at an altitude between 3300 and 7200 feet above sea level, making it one of the highest tea estates in the world. The garden takes its name from the national flower of Nepal: Rhododendron arboreum (Lali gurans in Nepali). The estate is IMO organic certified, JAS certified, and ISO 22000- 2005 certified.
The teas grown here enjoy the perfect combination of sun, shade and rain that is conducive to the production of teas with a rich muscatel flavor and a superb aroma. The tea brews to a copper color that is smooth with a caramel sweetness and notes of citrus.
Brew tea at 212º – steep for 3 minutes.
