loose leaf black tea
Tea grown at the Roof of the World is stronger than the types from nearby Darjeeling. Containing a large number of golden tips or buds, the short brown-black leaves give rise to a yellow-brown infusion with an aroma and taste reminiscent of meadow honey.
Preparation guidelines: Allow 1 teaspoon of tea for each 1.5 dl of water and one more for the teapot. Add freshly boiled water and leave it to infuse for 3-5 minutes. Sieve and serve. Suitable for 1 infusion.
The tea from this mountainous area - the roof of the world - is quite a lot stronger than that of neighbouring Darjeeling. In addition, it has an abundance of golden tips. The short brown-black leaves give rise to a yellow-brown infusion with an aroma and taste reminiscent of meadow honey.

A great blend of black tea from the Ruhana region. A sense of ripe banana and cacao come through in the taste and aroma, rounded off at the close by a hint of citrus fruit.
