Nepal's eastern tea-growing regions, situated amidst the lush Himalayan region, are renowned for producing exceptional teas cultivated in pristine, high-altitude environments. These regions are celebrated for their rich biodiversity, fertile soils, and cool mountain climates that create ideal conditions for growing premium, aromatic teas. Nepal's rapidly evolving tea industry has gained global recognition for its high-quality, hand-crafted teas, led by the pioneering Tinjure Cooperative; Nepal’s first organic tea cooperative.
Founded by a collective of passionate small-scale farmers, Tinjure focuses on sustainable farming practices and community-driven production. Their commitment to organic cultivation and traditional handcrafting techniques has not only elevated the quality of Nepali teas but also empowered local communities through fair trade and environmentally responsible practices.

Organic Black Tea | Golden Tips (Camellia Sinensis)

This artisanal tea is meticulously crafted using only the terminal bud and the top two leaves of the tea plant. The careful plucking and delicate processing techniques preserve the fragile buds, resulting in an unusually high bud count for a black tea. This thoughtful craftsmanship imparts the tea with its signature velvety texture and intricate flavor profile, where deep honey and chocolate notes intertwine with bright, fruity aromas.

Early in the 1990s, three villages on three hillsides united and started cultivating tea. They honored their geography by naming themselves Tinjure, which translated to “three hills”. The newly created Tinjure Cooperative marketed its collected green leaf to established Nepali tea gardens in the area, such as Kanchenjunga Tea Estate. In order to create their own processing facility and make their own tea from the green leaves they harvest, the Tinjure Cooperative started raising funds in 2013. As of right now, the Tinjure Cooperative has 240 members.

This tea is crafted for connoisseurs and retailers seeking premium, ethically produced black teas with exceptional character. Ideal for customers who appreciate robust yet smooth blends with natural sweetness and complexity. Perfect for cafes, specialty tea shops, and gourmet retailers aiming to offer distinctive, high-quality teas to their clientele.
