Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
Gold Mine is a Nepalese "Golden" Black Tea with very fine pickings. It comes from the Ucchapahadi Tea Producer Cooperative which we've been working with now for over three years. This tea is delightfully malty with a pleasant minerality, cocoa and pear notes and a little bit of spice like cinnamon and nutmeg. This tea like all teas from the Ucchapahadi Cooperative is organically farmed. Harvest: Spring, 2024 Cultivar: Nepal Elevation: 2300 meters Region: Deumai Municipality, Ilam, Nepal
