Nilgiri Green

Nilgiri Green tea, grown in the renowned Blue Mountains of southern India, is often referred to as Blue Mountain Green Tea. The unique combination of the cool climate, rich soil, and high altitude in the Nilgiri Hills imparts distinct characteristics to this exceptional tea.

This green tea is celebrated for its bright, refreshing flavor, accompanied by gentle sweetness. Subtle floral and citrusy notes, paired with a hint of astringency, make it both lively and invigorating. Unlike some green teas that tend to have strong vegetal or grassy flavors, Nilgiri Green Tea is more balanced, making it approachable for a wide range of palates. Its light to medium body offers a crisp and clean finish, ensuring a refreshing drinking experience.

Versatility is one of Nilgiri Green Tea’s strengths—it can be enjoyed both hot and iced, with its natural sweetness making it delightful on its own, without the need for added sugar or honey.

Like other high-quality green teas, Nilgiri Green Tea is rich in antioxidants and provides several health benefits, including supporting digestion, boosting metabolism, and enhancing mental clarity.

This tea truly captures the essence of the Nilgiri region, one of the most picturesque and celebrated tea-growing areas in the world. A must-try for tea enthusiasts seeking both quality and flavor.

This is a flavorless tea and I would highly recommend this for someone who wants the green tea benefits without the green tea taste.  Too bad I bought so much of it!

The Nilgiri region has long been famous for producing black teas, but over time, the allure of green tea, with its lighter, refreshing qualities, captured the attention of tea connoisseurs. As the world embraced the health benefits and flavors of green tea, the tea estates in Nilgiri began crafting their own version—Nilgiri Green tea.

What sets Nilgiri Green apart is its bright, clean taste. It is not as grassy or vegetal as some other green teas, like those from Japan, but instead offers delicate citrus and floral notes with a subtle sweetness that lingers on the palate. This unique flavor profile makes it stand out in the world of green teas, providing a refreshing alternative that is both lively and soothing.

For generations, local tea farmers have carefully hand-picked the tender leaves, crafting this tea in small batches to preserve its natural flavors. The result is a tea that speaks of the land it comes from—fresh, uplifting, and deeply connected to the misty hills where it is grown.

Pu-Erh: A Unique Experience

The leaves for this tea are grown on trees in China’s Yunnan Province, a gorgeous rolling land covered with greenery, foothills, and mountains. Classically beautiful terraces provide rich earth in which luscious crops grow, waterways wind through misty mountains, and temples sit against cloud-draped vistas.

Tea Legends: Caramel’s Missing Myth

If you’ve ever wandered into a popular coffee shop on a rainy afternoon, you’re sure to have heard someone ordering and some barista announcing the preparation of a caramel latte. These relatively simple drinks have become one of the mainstays of popular culture, yet the massive pilings of milk and sugar offer relatively little in the way of health benefits. What is so attractive about them, then? Quite simply: flavor.
