Himalayan White

Himalayan White is a white tea from the renowned Jun Chiyabari tea estate, located in the beautiful and scenic Hile region of Nepal. The tea is harvested during the first harvest period of the year, known as the ”first flush”, which spans a longer period of time. To ensure the highest quality, only the very earliest pickings from this period are used, giving the tea a pure and unique flavour.
The production process follows the traditional Chinese white tea technique, which starts with a natural wilting of the leaves. This is followed by a light final drying in an oven, where each step is done with great care and attention to preserve the delicate flavours and specific character of Himalayan White. This method gives the tea a crystal clear flavour with a refined and subtle complexity.
The result is a spectacular white tea offering a long, clean finish and a refreshing, light flavour. Himalayan White offers an elegant and sophisticated experience, perfect for those who appreciate a natural and pure tea experience. The March 2026 harvest will offer a fantastic flavour profile, reflecting the unique growing conditions in Hile and the passion and care the estate puts into its production.
