Makaibari Estate Darjeeling

This exquisite, single garden tea hails from one of the last family-owned tea estates in Darjeeling, India - a leader of fair trade and organic permaculture. It's a high altitude tea that is grown on steep, picturesque slopes of up to 4000 ft and is surrounded by fresh air and pure mountain spring water. A proprietary blend of 2nd autumnal flush which is handpicked & artisan-processed, this tea provides a bright and brisk cup that is much lighter than other black teas. It's got a fresh floral, apple-like character & a slightly astringent finish. All tea.o.graphy blends are carefully handcrafted with a special focus on organic & fair trade ingredients. with love, from Taos, New Mexico.
