Himalaya Seasons

The first harvest of the year, Himalaya Spring is an awakening after winter dormancy. As temperatures rise, the tea plants slowly begin to grow again, drawing on the energy and nutrients stored during the colder months. This careful, unhurried growth produces leaves that are light, fresh, and aromatic, with a delicate complexity. Gently rolled and only minimally oxidized, this tea stands apart from traditional black teas, offering a bright cup with subtle astringency and a character that will appeal to lovers of green tea.

Harvested at the height of summer, Second Musk Flush reflects the intensity of longer days, warmth, and humidity. The leaves grow faster under these conditions, developing greater body and depth. A defining element of this tea is the natural interaction with leafhoppers, which triggers a transformation in the plant. This process enhances the concentration of aromatic compounds, giving the tea its distinctive muscatel character, sweet and fruity, a signature of the season and its unique conditions.

As the final harvest of the year, Autumn Flush marks the gentle closing of the tea season. With cooler temperatures and slowing growth, the leaves develop a softer, more subdued character. Careful processing brings out their full potential, encouraging deeper, warmer notes and a smooth, rounded profile. In the cup, this tea offers comfort and balance, a quiet and grounding expression that reflects the calm of autumn and the transition towards winter dormancy.
