A rare and remarkable harvest

The Nepali First Flush

The Nepali first flush is among the rarest and the most delicate blooms in the South Asian tea world. Our first pluck of the season is a treasured harvest because of Nepal's unique microclimate. These tea plants grow in a rigorous surrounding and are awakened after the long-dormant winter season, well-hydrated by the pristine Himalayan waters. This makes our First Flush one of the smoothest black teas, packed with antioxidants.

First Flush Black Tea

As fresh as it can get!

Plucked on the 5th of March, available by the 25th. The First Flush is the only harvest that is available to order within 20 days of its plucking making it the freshest tea one can savor.

A nutrient-rich harvest.

Post winter dormancy, in the Himalayan microclimate, the tea plants awaken. The rigorous climate, cool air, and strong sun force its slow growth. This makes the young, tender leaves of the First Flush the most nutritious and antioxidant-rich harvest of all time.

First breath of Spring.

Nurtured by Himalayan snowmelt in our pristine microclimate, KTE’s young tea buds thrive. These delicate leaves, bursting with spring's floral fragrance, offer a cup that captures the essence of the first flush, like savoring the spring season itself.

This is a fresh, cream of the crop tea that has an entire flavor profile all of it's own. We may all notice different notes and aspects of the tea, but we all love this one. It stands out from other teas. Well worth adding to your collection of the best teas.

A tea blessed by the gods 

In Nepal, the First Flush isn't just a tea harvest, it's a cultural celebration. Astrologers mark the most auspicious time, and with blessings from the Gods, the delicate first flush leaves are plucked. This reverence reflects the belief that the First Flush is more than just a warm cup of tea; it symbolizes fresh beginnings and a promise of a bountiful year ahead.

Meet our Producer

Among the cool mountains at Kanchanjangha Tea Estate (KTE), Chandra grew up breathing in the scent of tea leaves. The young plants at KTE were like silent friends to him. Chandra is the first homegrown tea producer to work with KTE’s First Flush due to his years of experience in tea making supported by his calm demeanor. Chandra’s skilled hands are the first to touch the season's most special tea - the First Flush.

Quantity: 100 gms (3.5 oz).
