Hand-plucked in early spring from the Sandakphu foothill plantation in Ilam, Nepal, Spring White Buds is made from the T1 cultivar — a Nepali tea plant locally called Musa Kane or Goomti, prized for its silvery pubescent buds. Bud-plus-first-leaf is hard-withered for over 16 hours with alternating cold and hot air, then gently rolled — no separate oxidation step, just careful Nepal-specific craft.

Featured in The New York Times' 2019 profile of Nepal as the next great tea origin. The pale gold liquor brings vivid wildflower aromatics, muscat grape lift, stone-fruit sweetness, and a silky butter finish. A natural fit for white-tea drinkers seeking a vivid, expressive cup that doesn't fit neatly into Chinese white-tea categories.
