Our Long Leaf style is currently out of stock and a new lot is expected by mid-February.
This small leaf style is similar in profile to the long leaf but not quite as floral. It has a crisp, refreshing taste without any vegetal or herbaceous notes. Established in 1859 and managed by a 4th generation owner, Makaibari is one of the oldest tea estates in Darjeeling and is committed to organic and sustainable tea farming practices. Certified Organic & Fair Trade.
