An from In Pursuit of Tea! This green tea, organically grown in Samcholing, Bhutan, has never before been exported. The high elevation fields are located at the summer palace of the second king, and were originally planted in the 1950s. A collective of 26 women now operate the 43-acre farm, hand-picking, pan-firing and rolling the small leaves into a simple twisted shape. The bright, sweet flavor is reminiscent of a Chinese green tea, with herbaceous notes of spinach, crisp fruit and citrus, and a juicy, lightly spicy aroma.
Unlike many green teas, the leaves can stand up to multiple steepings—try four or five—using water around 180°F. Sip the golden green elixir and enjoy the taste of a new tradition!
