From Happy Earth Tea

A gorgeous hand rolled tea with an exquisite bouquet, from the Organic farm of Jun Chiyabari located in the eastern Himalayas of Nepal. It is easy to fall in love with this tea!

DRY TEA: Beautiful, well-rolled, with profusion of silver tips that bear aroma of caramel, spice, molasses, and orchids.

INFUSION: A uniform rich chocolate brown with a nose of fine muscatel and almonds. (We try not to but it is almost impossible to not compare it with Darjeeling.)

CUP: Dark amber, almost ruby liquor with a lovely bouquet of muscatel grapeyness. It has a lovely sparkly quality to both the look and taste. It comes alive on the palate with a notes of half-ripe mango, nuts (almond) and red grapes. It has rich and well-balanced complexity. An unusual but nice nutty aftertaste.

Chose this as my morning tea. I feel that it’s hard to go wrong with anything from the Jun Chiyabari Estate, at least I have always liked the teas I’ve tried from there.

Compared to the Himalayan bouquet of yesterday, this is a stronger tea with more “oomph”. It reminds me more of a second flush darjeeling. I am getting a definite “spice” flavor from this tea along with nuttiness & a bit of muscatel. I decided to add a bit of agave syrup to this cuppa and found the sweetener made the flavor of it really sparkle. The agave definitely brought out the grape notes! Also nice because it has no astringency in the finish. I would say Nepali teas are like darjeeling’s gentle cousin… :)

Glad I got the chance to try this…
