Darjeeling First Flush

Black tea

The production of black tea involves several distinct phases, each critical to developing the tea's unique flavour, color, and aroma:

• Withering: Freshly picked tea leaves are spread out to wilt and lose moisture, making them pliable.
• Rolling: Withered leaves are rolled mechanically or by hand to break down their cell walls, releasing essential oils and enzymes.
• Oxidation: The rolled leaves are exposed to air, allowing enzymatic oxidation (often referred to as fermentation) to occur. This process develops the tea's color and flavour.
• Drying: To stop oxidation, the leaves are heated through baking or firing, reducing moisture content and fixing the flavour.
• Sorting and Grading: The dried leaves are sorted into grades based on size and quality through sieving, ensuring uniformity in the final product.

Each step is meticulously controlled to achieve the desired quality and characteristics of the finished black tea.

Tea farm

The Sivitar Estate is a distinguished tea farm located in the challenging terrains of the Darjeeling hills, famous for its exclusive and high-quality tea production. Situated at elevations ranging from 1,000 meters to 1,500 meters above sea level, the estate benefits from a unique microclimate that contributes to the distinct aroma and flavor profile of its teas. Known for its commitment to sustainable farming practices, Sivitar employs natural fertilizers and eco-friendly methods, ensuring the production of organic teas that meet the highest standards of quality and environmental stewardship. This estate's exclusivity is not just in its location or its organic certification but in its dedication to creating a legacy of premium tea that respects the earth and delights the palate.

Organic certification and testing

All our teas are organic certified and tested for pesticides, ensuring they meet stringent quality standards. We steadfastly reject the use of artificial flavors and concentrated aromas. Our approach to creating flavored and blended teas is deeply intentional, involving the in-house selection and combination of each ingredient. Our commitment extends to using only organically certified, whole spices, deliberately avoiding grinding them into fine powders. This choice ensures our teas remain pure and clear, as finely ground spices can release excessive power into the brew, compromising its clarity. The essence of our fruit flavors comes from organic essential oils, obtained through cold press technology to preserve the natural qualities without the degradation that can occur with heat. Proudly, every ingredient in Nannuo Pop is organically certified, embodying our unwavering commitment to purity and quality, without exceptions. This commitment to quality and safety reflects our dedication to providing the best possible product to our customers, with a focus on health and environmental sustainability.
