Farmer's Green is a tea for journeys of the mind and spirit. Immerse your tastebuds in a tea that embodies the beautiful Nepalese landscape with a delicate sweetness and a soft vegetal nature. This incredible organic green tea hails from Jasbire Tea Village in Nepal. On first glance at the dry leaf you may be surprised that this is a green tea at all, the leaves having been so carefully plucked and processed that it has the appearance of a white tea. But the flavour profile is vegetal and sweet, with a light minerality and soft, lingering mouthfeel that shows itself off as a fine green tea through-and-through. With a delightfully soft aroma that reflects the gentleness of the rolling hills in spring, this will be an exquisite addition to your tea cupboard.
