Description

Two Nepalese teas that couldn’t be more different – and both from the same garden. At Jun Chiyabari, tradition meets innovation at the highest level: the tea makers combine the Anglo-Indian tradition of Himalayan black tea with techniques from East Asia.

This set brings both styles together. Himalaya Spring is a classic first flush from the first harvest after the winter rest: floral, fresh and only lightly oxidised. Himalaya Imperial Black is an innovative summer harvest, fully oxidised and gently rolled in the East Asian manner, with dark notes of cacao and prune.

Taste them side by side to discover how different two teas from the same garden can be.

Meet the Maker

Jun Chiyabari Tea Garden, Nepal

In the mountains surrounding Hile, high altitude, misty weather, and cool temperatures cause tea leaves to grow slowly, developing structure and intense fragrance.

Here, two brothers from Kathmandu founded Jun Chiyabari, which translates to Moon Tea Garden. Inspired by their memories of growing up surrounded by tea, they are realising their vision by combining different cultivars and styles and introducing East Asian methods alongside classic Himalayan tea varieties. Their certified organic teas embody a vitality and freshness unique to Nepal.

The Eastern Himalayas

Blending cultures, building bridges

Breathtaking summits, sprawling valleys, lush green forests, and raging rivers: The Eastern Himalayas are a sanctuary of life. As diverse as the region’s habitat are its people, who nurture a variety of tea traditions that connect history with innovation. With its numerous religions, languages, and customs, this heritage harbours a rich palette of flavours and aromas. From the hills of Darjeeling to the natural paradise of Sikkim and the rugged beauty of Nepal: Eduard/Himalaya takes tea to new heights.

FAQ

Are your teas organic?

Some are. Where an EU organic seal is available, we are glad to have it — behind it stands a strict standard with annual inspections, and for you it is the quickest answer there is. We simply cannot get it for every tea, and that has nothing to do with quality and everything to do with the size of the farms.

Our gardens are mostly small family holdings in remote highlands, picking by hand and producing a few hundred kilos a year. For them, certification is above all a cost: fees, annual inspections, documentation in a foreign language.

So we look at the way they work ourselves, on site and in detail. We ask to be shown everything and to see the evidence behind it, and we put a great deal of weight on a relationship of trust with the people who produce our tea. And sometimes the law is there ahead of us: in the Indian state of Sikkim, selling and using chemical pesticides has been prohibited since 2014, and since 2016 the entire state counts as fully organic.

Whether a tea is certified is stated on its product page.

Can I brew the leaves more than once?

Absolutely! And the second infusion is often the best one. Unlike the broken leaf in a supermarket tea bag, whole leaves need the first infusion just to open up, and they change as they go: bright and fragrant at first, then denser and sweeter, finally quiet and mineral. In Chinese gongfu cha, eight to fifteen infusions are perfectly normal. The steeping times for the later infusions are printed on the pouch.

Which water works best for your teas?

Soft, filtered water. A cup of tea is more than 99 % water — whatever is dissolved in it, you taste along with the tea. A filter is our first recommendation: we work with the Aarke Purifier, which turns even mediocre tap water into water worth drinking. Without a filter, reach for a low-mineral spring water such as Volvic.

Hard water you taste immediately: the infusion turns flat and dull, often with a chalky edge, and a fine film settles on the surface. The minerals sit in front of exactly those notes we pick the gardens for — and the finer the tea, the bigger the loss. One and the same tea can taste like two different teas, depending on nothing but the water.

The same goes for cold brew: filtered water, straight into the fridge. Which temperature a tea prefers is printed on its pouch and listed on its product page.

How should I store the tea?

Keep the bag closed and store it dry, dark and away from strong smells. A cool spot at room temperature works better than the fridge.

How long does delivery take?

Your order is packed in Berlin and reaches you within two to four working days. Shipping within Germany is free from 69 €.

What if I don't like the tea?

Then it's on us. Write to us within 30 days of delivery and you'll get your money back in full. Nothing needs to be sent back — keep the tea or pass it on.
