This year’s harvest celebrates the success of last year’s harvest. The immense support of the 1st edition of Wild Himalayan Mountain tea has allowed the women to grow their harvest, buy basic food which is not available in the village like rice and dhal (lentils), afford transportation to Kathmandu and pay for healthcare expenses.
First Harvest
2022
A herbal tea with floral notes and a pink hue that represented the Color of Biodiversity. This harvest was a berry-forward tea that had hints of tart hibiscus and sweet currant.
Second Harvest
2023
A green tea with a full-bodied palate. The addition of increased solar driers for the 2023 harvest reduces moisture in the berry creating a complex flavor.
