Nepali tea

CTC and Orthodox tea

Nepali tea is a beverage made from the leaves of tea plants (Camellia sinensis) grown in Nepal. They are distinctive in appearance, aroma and taste,[1] but are similar in many ways to tea produced in Darjeeling tea, perhaps because the eastern zones of Nepal have geography and topography similar to Darjeeling.[2] Its relatively smaller production quantities mean that teas from Nepal are less well known than those from Darjeeling.[3]

Nepal's teas fall into two types of tea: Orthodox tea and Crush, tear, curl tea.
