About This Tea
What does taste like?
This bold and brisk black tea from the untouched hills of Nagaland unveils a complex profile. Expect a vibrant dance of ripe black plum and sweet malt, gracefully edged with earthy whispers and a subt. It leans fruity, malt and earthy.
How should I brew ?
Water around 90–100 °C (195–212 °F). In a mug, steep 3–5 min. For gongfu, use 5 g per 100 ml, 15–30 s steeps. You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. Full boil is fine for most blacks. Don't overthink it.
Where does come from?
Grown in Nagaland, India from the Betjan cultivar. This batch is from the Summer 2025 harvest.
How much does cost?
Starts at $18.03 from Tea Gardenia, or about $0.36/g. A 50g package gets you around 8 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $2.16 per session. Explore more black teas on Teadar.
