Ilam Green Tea, Pan-Fired
Unoxidised · pan-fixed · 250 g

About this product
Oxidation is stopped by heat, and how you apply that heat changes the tea completely. Pan-firing — the Chinese method, and the one Nepali producers mostly use — leaves a rounder, toastier cup than steaming does.
This is an everyday lot rather than a showpiece: forgiving to brew, good at 80 °C for two minutes, and it will take a second and third infusion without going bitter.
