Uplifting Darjeeling Tea

$14.00
Comins Tea

A BGS favorite from our Comins selection, Uplifting Darjeeling is a deep, toasty loose-leaf tea that warms from the first sip. Its light body carries a layered, aromatic character with notes of fruit, florals, and a subtle musky sweetness.

About the farmers:  The livelihood of around 180 farmers is closely tied to Bhawesh Niroula’s tea factory in the village of Chotta Poobong, Darjeeling. Created by Bhawesh's father in 2015, the factory has created dozens of local jobs.

He explains, "Our cooperative and independent tea-processing facility offers our employees and farming partners two to three times the average tea garden rate in Darjeeling, while also providing people with purpose, livelihoods, and hope for the future at a time when many young people are leaving Darjeeling’s farming villages for the city."
