TASTE THE DIFFERENCE OF THE HIMALAYAS: Cultivated at altitudes between 4,500 and 6,000 feet in the Himalayan Mountains of Nepal, our Kumari Gold tea is harvested from young tea bushes that imbue it with uniquely sweet flavor notes, distinguishing it from teas grown in other regions. Each cup delivers a taste of the pristine, high-altitude environment, allowing you to savor the distinct natural sweetness and rich, aromatic profile that only the Himalayas can provide
FARM TO CUP FRESHNESS: We take responsibility for the entire supply chain, eliminating middlemen and ensuring that the freshest hand-plucked tea is packaged on-site, and arrives this way on your doorstep. By eliminating middlemen, we maintain strict quality control from the moment the tea leaves are hand-plucked in the pristine Himalayan foothills to the final packaging. Packaged on-site immediately after harvest, our loose black tea retains its exceptional freshness and distinctive golden tips, which impart a smooth, luxurious taste. When you choose our tea, you’re not only enjoying a premium product but also supporting sustainable farming practices and the local Nepalese community
UNIQUE GOLDEN TIPS TEA: Kumari Gold black tea is produced with meticulous care during the second flush, where only the top one or two leaves and the terminal bud are hand-plucked. The loose tea leaves undergo a delicate withering process to reduce moisture without compromising integrity, ensuring they remain intact through a multi-stage rolling process. This method carefully extracts essential oils and heightens aromatic qualities without breaking the leaves. During oxidation, leaves are turned to enhance flavor and achieve the signature golden hue of the buds. Finally, a precise drying process seals in the complex flavors and aromas, making every cup a luxurious experience
USDA CERTIFIED ORGANIC: Sourced from Nepal's pioneering certified organic tea garden, Kumari Gold organic loose leaf tea combines traditional craftsmanship with unique processing techniques. Each batch is crafted to ensure premium quality and purity, meeting strict USDA organic standards. This commitment to excellence delivers a cleaner, richer tea experience directly from the Himalayan foothills to your cup
