Nepalese Tea -- net sources?

Hi all,

I'm looking for good quality Nepalese tea on the Net, having already viewed the black tea offerings of SpecialTeas.com, InPursuitofTea.com, ImperialTeaGarden.com, and I don't remember what else.

Are there any personal recommendations out there, perhaps -- I'm looking for at least a modicum of tips, maybe somewhat of a fruity note, and either 1st or 2nd flush.(The last would be my personal preference, as it is said to be stronger, but for all I know the person for whom it is being bought as a present -- someone who was a young child on an Indian tea estate in the last years of the Raj -- likes it lighter.)

Any input, esp. that setting straight erroneous assumptions made above, would be welcome indeed -- I've never drunk Nepalese tea.

I haven't tasted it, but I see a Nepalese in the latest Upton's catalogue.

drunk Nepalese tea.

Hi OZZy Tea Source has several teas from Nepal. I bought one that was Himalayan a year or so ago and likes it very much. Actually they have tea from everywhere but not lots and lots of varieties.(Search for Nepal in their search) They are online and I have bought from them at least 3-4 times and they are fast in delivering. At least in the states anyway. I do not Know anyone there, no relation but remember they had some Himalayan so I went and took a peek. Jenn Sweltering in Texas but still drinking that wonderful Red Robe I bought from a chinese vendor. .Hmm I'll bet Red Robe is good Iced, May try it today

Thanks much, Jenn -- it's finally Summer in New York, after a chilly Spring. Never known Nemorial Day weekend to fail to bring on the H & H, though, around here.
