A flowery and highly aromatic leaf tea with the appearance of the best Sikkim teas and the exquisite character of the finest Darjeeling teas. The small plantation Maloom, located on the roof of the world, produces outstanding teas which need not fear the comparison to the most significant Darjeelings. The very nice Sinensis leaf with its silver-colored tips develops a bronze-colored infusion with a flowery and round scent. A real alternative for those who love something special.
This well-known garden was founded in 1886 and is also called “Silbung” in the local language. Selimbong is well known for second flush production of prime quality tea´s and has also been awarded many prizes. We have chosen a wonderful quality from the second plucking period which is reflected in the leaf and the taste: a completely even and dark Sinensis leaf with lots of silvery white tips, a shining copper-colored cup, and a taste that is aromatic and spicy, with a soft, flowery flavor!
The tea makers from the Hatidubi Tea Factory located in the Golagath District have surprised us with a very well turned out experiment: perhaps Assam’s first real smoky tea! Fu Soonga is a very popular Assamese type of cooking for which young, green bamboo canes are filled with yoghurt or other foods and then prepared over the open flame or on hot plates. Fu means to blow and Soonga means cane. The tea maker’s idea was to blow smoke from wild timber through these bamboo canes on the tea leaves during their production. The result definitely must be tried: a smooth and aromatic Assam with light, well-balanced notes of smoky nuances.
A refreshing summer treat where sunripened, tangy citrus fruits meet delightfully tart rhubarb. Our Pu-Erh is “down-to-earth”, but still offers plenty of room for a cheerful summer party.
We have fallen in love with the taste of gooseberries and currants on a mild black tea base. We are just as enthused by both of these berries now as when we were kids, and children today are just as fascinated by them. Refreshingly tangy and crisp, the memories of these berries still put a smile on your face today. Some things will always be our favorites!
