Located in the village of Fikkal, La Mandala is one of the smallest tea factories in Nepal. It produces gorgeous teas all year round. The young tea maker who works on the plantations makes many delicious teas just like this one.
This spring green tea is initially vegetal and floral, going on to progressively reveal nutty notes, supported by a mineral finish.
