Khumbu Black Tea

Khumbu Black Tea is a summer harvest loose leaf tea from the lush highlands of Ilam, Nepal, renowned for producing some of the world’s most flavorful Himalayan teas. Named in honor of the legendary Khumbu region — the gateway to Mount Everest — this tea captures the same spirit of adventure and beauty in every sip.

Hand-plucked during the summer flush, the leaves are naturally oxidized and hand-rolled to preserve their rich aroma. The amber-hued liquor reveals layers of red grape sweetness, smooth malt, and toasted walnut, finishing with delicate hints of apricot and hazelnut.

Rich in antioxidants, this premium Nepali loose leaf tea supports heart health, boosts immunity, and provides a gentle energy lift. Perfect for a mindful morning ritual, an afternoon focus boost, or a quiet moment of reflection.
