Himalayan Evergreen Spring
Organic green tea, Nepal

Flavour: floral, vegetal, buttery ~ light-bodied
Himalayan Evergreen is Jun Chiyabari’s premium-grade green tea. This is the 2023 Spring harvest, plucked by hand on 8 April from plants growing at an elevation of 1850m. The leaves are withered, pan-fired, rolled and oven-dried, resulting in a delicate and sweet green tea.


Jun Chiyabari, meaning ‘Moonlit tea garden’, is a family-run, high mountain tea estate led by brothers Bachan and Lochan Gyawali. The tea plants are set in small plots scattered between forests, bamboo groves, boulders and streams, at an altitude of 1650m to 2100m in Dhankuta, east Nepal. The terroir, the brothers’ commitment to organic production and careful processing create rare, high quality, light and aromatic full-leaf teas. Organic certification by IMO.

Infusions: specialty tea leaves can all be steeped at least twice, and often more, so each 3 gram serve (150 mls - a standard teacup size), will give you two cups ('infusions') if you steep the leaves twice. On the back of your pouch under 'Steep', you can find the number of infusions for your tea.
