Wine-Like Nepal Black Tea with Cocoa, Caramel & Muscat Grape
Snow Leopard is a rare, high-mountain Nepal black tea with layered notes of cocoa, caramel, muscat grape, and red currant. Full-bodied yet smooth with low astringency, it drinks elegantly neat and holds a splash of milk at longer steeps. Hand-picked in spring at ~6,700 ft in Ilam, Nepal — where slow growth at altitude builds the wine-like depth most black teas can't reach.

- Single-origin Ilam, ~6,700 ft — slow-grown spring harvest
