A short introduction to tea

One leaf.
Many expressions.

Black, green, white and oolong teas all begin with the tea plant. The way the leaf is handled and processed gives each style its own colour, aroma and character.

Norling black tea leaves01

Black tea

A fully oxidised style, known for a deeper colour and a bold, rounded cup.

Norling green and golden tea leaves02

Green tea

Leaves are heated early in processing to keep a fresher, greener character.

Norling white tea leaves03

White tea

A lightly handled style, often made with young leaves and buds for a gentle cup.

Oolong tea

Partly oxidised leaves bring together the freshness of green tea and depth of black tea.

Leaf, season and craft all shape the final cup. Ask us for tasting notes and brewing guidance for the current lots.

Our story

A tea company shaped by its home.

Norling Speciality Tea was established in 2021 by four entrepreneurs in Suryodaya Municipality, Ilam, in eastern Nepal.

We focus on quality tea production and trading, building relationships between growers, makers and tea drinkers around the world. Our work starts with the leaf and the people who care for it.

NOR means wealth and LING means land in Tibetan: a name connected to the place we call home.

We continue to work toward organic certification. Contact us for the latest certification status and available product documents.
