Sagarmatha Gold is a first-prize-winning first flush black tea named after the breathtaking Mount Everest.

Its golden liquor reveals delightful notes of milk chocolate, hazelnut, cocoa powder, oat, and cane sugar. A must-try for black tea lovers.

To the Nepalese, Mount Everest is “Sagarmatha,” and this first-flush tea delivers an experience as rarefied as pure mountain air. Grown at 7,000 feet in rich soil, its tender buds are plucked, withered, naturally oxidized, hand-rolled, and dried with care.

True to its name, Sagarmatha Gold ranked first in an international tea tasting held at Mount Everest Base Camp in April 2018 and earned global recognition at THE LEAFIES 2024. This tea highlights the excellence of Nepal’s Ilam region, home to the world’s finest teas.

Perfect with or without milk and sugar, this invigorating tea is ideal for starting your day.

Reflecting the true Sherpa spirit, our flagship breakfast tea is a third flush variety grown at 7000ft altitude. Like a fine wine, it matures over six months, achieving a perfect balance of flavors. The deep amber infusion offers a smooth mouthfeel, with stone fruit and floral notes typical of the finest Nepali teas.

Enjoy the high caffeine content and health benefits, including antioxidants that boost energy and provide a calming effect. Comparable to Darjeeling Second Flush and ideal for lovers of Earl Grey or classic English Breakfast, this loose leaf black tea is perfect for everyday tea drinkers seeking a distinctive, single-origin experience. Handpicked and direct, it ensures freshness in every cup.

Snow Leopard is a spring-picked black tea made with hand-picked leaves and buds and uses a unique oxidation process where the tea develops wine-like characteristics. Notes of cocoa powder, red currant, and caramel are accented by notes of clover honey and muscat grape. This tea can be enjoyed over many steeps.

This exquisite black tea is produced with the finest hand-picked leaves and buds and is prepared with similar perfection to Lhotse Black Tea. However, the key difference is in the season of tea growth and the fermentation process. During the tea-making process, an anaerobic method is used for fermentation or oxidation. While in Lhotse Black preparation a constant flow of natural mist is applied during oxidation, whereas in Snow Leopard, the mist is completely disallowed and the tea is allowed to get oxidized with the available oxygen within the leaf. A chunk of tea mass is compressed so as to allow an anaerobic natural reaction to take place so that the sweet character is attained with a hint of Winey taste with a darker reddish infusion and liquor profile.
