Sourced from a different tea estate to our previous Nilgiri Winter Frost offerings, this one has a smooth taste with gentle malt and fruit notes. Nilgiri Winter Frost Tea gets its unique taste as a result of the contrasting conditions experienced by the plant in late winter, the days are warm and sunny while temperatures plummet at night. Sourced direct from Neemalamai Organics, a small farm located high in the Nilgiri mountains.
