From TÊTÊ

Green tea is synonymous with healthy drinking, but not usually with flavor. We sought out to change that, and chose a tea that is made from leaves grown by small farmers who live near Mai Pokhari, one of the most religious lakes of Nepal. The tea-maker pan-roasts the carefully-plucked leaves, rolls them to release the nuanced flavor, and then dries them at just the right moment to lock that flavor in. The tea has a nutty flavor, and each sip will leave you wanting for more. It’s best as an afternoon drink.

Backlog from a few days ago.

I stuck with the 70C temperature, though I let it go for 3 minutes rather than 2. Didn’t notice a big change in flavour – still a pretty standard, straightforward green.

Nepal Teas yum!

I tried all three of TETE’s line up and this one I liked the least. The green is a sensitive steeper and low temp of 160f works best – 175f was bitter city! This green is vegetal asparagus sweet. Later infusions get smokey and less sweet as well as dry. Next time, I need to try this green cold brewed!

Another from Nepal. This one is simply called green tea. What’s inside is not as simple as the name. The dry aroma is highly roasted. It made me nervous as I have to be in the mood for roasted (not my favorite). So I steeped it in 160F water for two minutes. The wet leaf is even more roasted. Cautiously, I took my first sip. Wow. The taste is nothing like the leaf scent. I really like this. It is nutty. Behind this is a green thing going on. It isn’t grassy or viney tasting. I hate using vegetal but I can’t come up with a better word except tasty. Just enough bite to excite the palette. My guess is this would be great iced. I have been impressed with both teas I have tried from TETE so far.
