Himalayan Bouquet

Handmade in Nepal, the Lokta boxes are completely natural, made of bio-degradable lokta paper that has never been touched by industrial chemicals or equipment. This is how Tealure addresses the social and environmental challenges associated with paper production. Exquisite teas in Lokta packaging will warm any tea drinker's soul.

For this tea, a very sophisticated process is used to prepare one of Nepal's best Oolong teas. Soon after picking the delicate green tea leaves from the highest sections of the tea garden, the leaves are bruised on bamboo mats, then they are withered, rolled and semi-oxidized until a fine balance of flavors is achieved. The leaves are large, dark brown, twisted and with a few silver buds. The cup is golden brown to chestnut in color and the taste is mildly sweet and fragrant. It is deep and complex with notes of spices and herbs with a lovely lingering aftertaste that almost gently prickles on the back of your tongue. This very pleasant tea is perfect with a ginger biscuit.
