Additional Information

The leaves are slightly withered under the Himalayan sun, and carefully dried to lock in their natural freshness, floral notes, and a sweet, velvety texture. Harvested in the Second Flush of 2022 and produced in small batches by Norling Speciality Tea, each crumpled bud is low in caffeine and high in antioxidants- an ideal choice for the health conscious ones.
