What makes Himalayan (Nepalese and Darjeeling) white tea so unique? 

Intense floral aroma and the distinct 'muscatel' notes of the region.  Expect a hint of spice and a lingering grape reminiscent mouthfeel.

Cultivars:  Ghumti
Grower:  Vaidya Family
Harvest:  08.2023
Gardens:  Maipokhari, Ilam, Nepal
GPS:  27.1°N, 87.9°E  

About the Grower: 
We had the pleasure of meeting Sophie Vaidya and family in Vancouver (of all places) for the first time.  As we learned about their project in Eastern Nepal, we planned a trip to this magical land.

The Vaidya family has a fairly short tea history; Dr. Vijay Gajananda Vaidya, a first-generation tea grower, turned a lifelong dream into four tea gardens: Guranse, Nigale, and Dharamsala (in the Koshi Region), and Mai (in Ilam). Among the many things to love about this project:

  • Land planted with a dozen different cultivars in gardens ranging in altitude from 1000m to 2200m; this gives the family access to a wide variety of flavours.
  • No fear to experiment. The team constantly tinkers with recipes.
  • Training, employment, and oftentimes lodging is provided to many locals who were previously having trouble finding work.
