DRY LEAF: The leaves present a clean, dark green appearance with a floral and sweet. You can sense an elegance in this tea right as you take the first sniff after opening the package.  

WET LEAF: Upon steeping, the wet leaves reveal a bouquet of floral and fruity scents, with tantalizing notes of pineapple and mangoes that hint at the tea's vibrant character. You might see some browning of a leaf or two indicating some oxidation, which is unusual for a green tea. But in deference to the tea makers we will retain its green tea categorization. 

CUP:  In the cup, Himalayan Shiiba delivers a sublime flavor profile: a gentle sweetness intertwined with a vegetal and a delicate floral undertone along with a smooth, creamy texture. The finish is long-lasting and sweet, leaving a memorable impression on the palate.

Savor this tea slowly, appreciating each layer of flavor that unfolds with every sip. Himalayan Shiiba is more than just a tea; it's a journey to the highlands of Nepal and the heart of Japanese tea history, brought together by a few exceptional men with great passion for tea.
