Himalayan Black

Himalayan Black is a high-quality example of a micro-production that comes from a carefully selected picking. Jun Chiyabari, who specialises in small-scale production, has selected this pick to bring out the rich, dark flavours typical of black tea from the region. Himalayan Black is characterised by its deep, malty flavour profile, with notes of cocoa and roast giving the tea a rich, warm character. The leaves are richly interspersed with buds, contributing to a smooth and clean finish that rounds out the flavour experience in a sophisticated way. This balance of powerful and subtle flavours makes Himalayan Black a tea suitable for both special occasions and everyday enjoyment.

H imalayan Black lends itself well to multiple infusions. The second infusion is best kept short, as the leaves have already started to open up and release their flavours. Subsequent infusions, on the other hand, should be left to rest a little longer to allow the flavours to deepen and the nuances to emerge. For many teas, two or three infusions with the above parameters are enough, but some keep on giving, cup after cup.
