Nathmulls Tea Details: GRADE : WHITE TEA - This specially created White Tea is a result of the continuous & untiring efforts of a small group of expert & patient pluckers & processors from the estate.
Only the most delicate two leaves & a bud are plucked just around sunrise (after which they recoil) with very tender care. Very tiny quantities are plucked each day & collected
The "manufacture" however involves withering & natural drying as a result of which the leaves tend to retain their original look and character
This unique tea has a very pale yellowish liquor and a very mild - yet delightful - fruity flavour. The mellowness has an amazing effect on the taste, making it an exceptional offering. Best drunk without sugar or milk.
