The Ambootia Tea Estate sits in the foothills of the Himalayas, 400 miles due north of Calcutta, close to Nepal and Bhutan. At 6500 feet, the climate is temperate, but rainy, and you can see the scorching plains down below and the mighty Kanchenjunga - almost as high as Everest. Ambootia grows Darjeeling tea using organic farming practices, following the holistic and herbal approach of Bio-Dynamic principles.

A small, but growing, amount of Darjeeling tea production is being processed as green tea. This Ambootia Green Tea produces an amber cup with a distinctive green tea flavour but hinting of that classic muscatel flavour of Darjeeling.

Brewing tip: 1 teaspoon, boiling water, 3 - 4 minutes
