Nepal Guranse Estate OP Organic

Tasting Notes: floral, muscatel grape, grass, apricot

Description: This medium-bodied black tea is pleasantly distinct in character with notes of muscatel grape, delicate florals, apricot stone fruit, and subtle grassy undertones. Its gently dry finish and balanced astringency make it a satisfying choice for those who enjoy Darjeeling-style black teas.

Grown at elevations between 4,000 and 7,500 feet, this tea comes from the Guranse Estate, one of the highest certified organic tea gardens in the world. Located in the Himalayan foothills near Mount Everest, Guranse is known for producing aromatic, Darjeeling-style teas. The pure mountain air, bright sunny days, and cool nights offer ideal growing conditions for teas with complexity and finesse.

Nepal is a younger tea-growing region gaining recognition for teas that rival Darjeeling in quality and character. Both regions share similar geography and elevation, producing black teas with floral notes, muscatel sweetness, and fruit-forward depth. As demand grows for exceptional alternatives to Darjeeling, Nepali teas like this one continue to stand out.
