Artisan Process:
Ana’s Organic Green Tea begins its journey in Nepal’s Maipokhari Hills, where tender first-flush leaves are handpicked in early spring. Within hours, the leaves are de-enzymed to lock in their bright green hue and antioxidant richness. They are gently rolled, shaped, and slowly oven-dried to preserve delicate vegetal notes. The result is a tea that rivals Japan’s finest sencha and China’s top green teas, with a unique Himalayan character.
