Organic Golden Milk

Kanchanjangha Tea Estate and Research Center Pvt. Ltd. (KTERC) is the first certified organic tea garden in Nepal that was established in 1984. Mr. Deepak Prakash Banskota; Father of our founder Nishchal Banskota, took this initiative to rid his community out of poverty. Read more about his story here. Till this day, it remains a model social enterprise that runs on cooperative infrastructure and is truly focused on the triple bottom line of people and planet before profit.

Our organic turmeric and ginger are grown on our family farm in eastern Nepal by local farmers. Planted underground in winter, they are harvested after about 10 months, sun-dried to reduce moisture, and then ground into fine powders. These powders are blended with black pepper and cinnamon to enhance their flavor and health benefits.

Our tea estate thrives in the eastern region of Nepal, nestled in the foothills of Mt. Kanchanjangha, which is the third-highest mountain in the world. Located precisely near the western borders of Darjeeling, India and north of the Ilam, the most famous tea growing region in Nepal, our small village enjoys the best of both worlds. Situated at an altitude of 1300-1800 meters (4,200 - 6000 feet), the area enjoys pristine Himalayan climatic conditions to produce highly unique and aromatic teas.

This tea is for anyone who already loves turmeric as a spice and as a superfood. This powder blend can be made in milk, water or can be mixed with smoothies and juices. Mixed with warm milk, this herbal blend makes the perfect comforting drink before bed.

We dedicate this golden milk blend to our cherished customers who have embraced turmeric as a superfood and medicinal herb. Inspired by numerous requests, we collaborated with our founder’s parents to recreate a traditional recipe. This blend harks back to the comforting drink we were served before bedtime during winter in Nepal, blending simplicity with effectiveness.
