Nilgiri Momentum Black Tea

This beautiful black tea comes from the Nilgiri mountains also known as the blue mountains in Southern India.

Place: Nilgiri Mountains, Southern India 

Profile: Whole leaf black tea, multilayered tasting notes of cranberries and sweet raisins, yams, tobacco, and chocolate

(This is one of my go to black teas when I am craving a bold tea or coffee) 

Tea Maker: Tea Studio

Production: This whole-leaf black is made from the large tea bushes native to low-lying Assam. Defying traditional knowledge regarding where the Assam bush can grow, the plant has found a happy home in the high-elevation tropical mountains of southern India. Small-scale farmers carefully harvest the plant’s new growth and bring it to the Tea Studio for processing, where an all-woman team carefully handles the harvest to ensure a whole-leaf black tea ends up in your cup. This tea was first created by Indi Khanna, the founder of Tea Studio and a veteran grower with some incredible stories and a fun sense of humor. When his daughter Muskan took the helm at Tea Studio, Indi taught her his secrets, and she has since raised the bar even higher.
