Nilgiri Black Tea - Blue Mountain

This Nilgiri is bright, with brisk liquors, and a smoothly rounded mellow flavor. Its taste is complex and floral, satisfying on more than one level. It does well with milk, but is also wonderful without.

Nilgiri teas are grown in the states of Tamil Nadu and Kerala, in South India. The teas are grown among the Nilgiris, or "Blue Mountains" which are known for the bluish mists which veil the region and the rare blue Kurinji flowers which blossom throughout the Nilgiris once every twelve years.
