Two thirds of the area of this famous tea garden is covered by subtropical rainforest; it already serves as a worldwide standard for organic tea cultivation! The organically grown green teas from this plantation in Darjeeling, on the foot of the Himalaya in northeastern India, have become as popular and rare as their black counterparts. Our quality is a very carefully processed tea with a large, open leaf of bright green color and fine silvery tips. This Makaibari is captivating with its fresh, spicy and tangy taste, the pastel green infusion and the sunny yellow cup color.
The success story started in the year 2000 when three tea lovers founded this fine, exclusive, 75 hectares large tea garden in East Nepal in order to produce, amongst other teas, half-fermented premium qualities in close corporation with several smaller farms. Serious competition for the Oolongs from Darjeeling and Formosa with an annual export of only a few lots with just under 100 kg net produce each. Both tea leaves and infusion have an intense scent of hay flowers, a complex, freshly aromatic and slightly earthy character with a delicately sweet spiciness.
RARITY!!!
Bamboo-leaf tea is a complete novelty for the European market. The leaves come uniquely from naturally growing bamboo and are hand-plucked in one of the best bamboo regions in Korea. Also due to its beneficial effects, this specialty has gained many followers in the shortest time. Bamboo-leaf tea contains no caffeine and displays a very pleasant, mild, slightly sweet flavour. The big, light green leaf develops a shining gold-green cup with a scented bouquet. Bamboo-leaf tea can be brewed up to two times.
