Description

A remarkably smooth Grand Cru

This Grand Cru comes from the Malate plantation in the Ilam region of Nepal. This hidden estate, nestled in the heart of the forest, enjoys an exceptional climate for tea cultivation, where the tea plants are continually shrouded in mist that supports their growth. A refined spring white tea that elegantly unfolds notes of heady flowers, vanilla, and citrus over a smooth texture.

Suggestion of preparation

How to prepare it hot:

Using a tasting set or a teapot: steep for 5 minutes in water at 80°C (180°F).

How to prepare it iced:

Using a teapot or a carafe: steep 8 g of leaves in 50 cl of room-temperature water for 50 minutes. Remove the leaves and refrigerate.

Grands Crus: savour the exceptional

Rare and ephemeral, teas identified as Grands Crus by Palais des Thés are the result of alchemy between a tea plant variety, its terroir and the talent of an artisan grower. Meticulously plucked, processed and sourced in the most respected tea gardens, our Grands Crus unveil unique flavours that reflect the refinement of their origins.
