Floral White Tea is a gently aromatic single-origin white tea from Ilam, Nepal — grown at 5,500 ft above sea level on Farmers Tea Co.'s certified organic farm. Spring blossom, soft rose, and a velvety peach-fuzz sweetness. The most fragrant tea in the Nepal Hills range, with the lowest caffeine of all. No bitterness.
If Fresh White Tea is the mountain in the morning — bright, clean, open — then Floral White Tea is the mountain in bloom. The two teas share the same farm, the same altitude, and the same farming families. What makes Floral White distinct is the harvest timing and leaf selection: buds and young leaves picked at the moment when the plant's natural aromatic oils are at their peak, producing a cup with a pronounced spring blossom character that no scenting process could replicate.
Dil Kumar Rai and the youth artisans at Farmers Tea Co. have been perfecting this harvest window with care and precision. The certified organic conditions at 5,500 ft in Malate, Ilam, allow the tea plant to express itself without interference — no pesticides to suppress the aromatics, no artificial fertilisers to rush the growth. With under 15mg of caffeine per cup, Floral White Tea is the ideal evening cup, or the first cup for anyone reducing their caffeine intake without giving up flavour.
Farmers Tea Co. is located in Malate, in the Ilam district of eastern Nepal. Led by Dil Kumar Rai alongside 150 farming families and youth artisans, the farm sits at 5,500 ft above sea level and holds certified organic status. Every bush is tended without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, and every batch is hand-processed with artisan care. Both Nepal Hills Tea white teas come exclusively from Farmers Tea Co. in Ilam.

Both come from Farmers Tea Co. in Ilam — but Floral White Tea is the more aromatic of the two. It has natural spring blossom, soft rose, and peach fuzz notes that develop from a specific harvest and processing method. Fresh White Tea is cleaner and more mineral (wildflower, morning dew). If you want the most delicate, floral cup in the Nepal Hills range, Floral White Tea is it.
Yes. Floral White Tea is the lowest-caffeine tea in the Nepal Hills range at approximately 5–15 mg per cup. For context, a cup of coffee has 80–120 mg. It is not caffeine-free, but it is minimally stimulating. This makes it the first choice for late-evening tea, for people who are caffeine-sensitive, or for those looking for the health benefits of tea (antioxidants, L-theanine) with minimal caffeine impact.
Yes. Floral White Tea is high in L-theanine — an amino acid naturally elevated by high-altitude growing at 5,500 ft — which promotes calm focus and reduces the edge of stress without sedation. Combined with the lowest caffeine in the range, it's an ideal wind-down tea. Many Nepal Hills customers make this their evening ritual: a quiet cup that tastes of spring blossoms and brings genuine calm.
No — white tea is the least tannic of all true teas, and Floral White Tea from Farmers Tea Co. at 5,500 ft is particularly gentle. Brew at 75–80°C for 3–5 minutes. Even a slightly longer steep won't produce bitterness. The floral notes (spring blossom, soft rose) create a naturally sweet impression that makes bitterness virtually impossible. This is the tea people recommend for anyone who has "never liked tea."
Yes. Floral White Tea is sourced from Farmers Tea Co. in Ilam, Nepal, which holds certified organic certification. It is grown on a certified organic farm with no synthetic pesticides or chemicals. White tea's minimal processing means everything in the cup — flavor, aroma, health compounds — comes directly from the leaf. Certified organic status ensures that everything in that leaf is as clean and natural as the Himalayan environment it grew in.
