To make the ideal iced tea, brew with extra tea leaves to keep flavors strong, let it cool, and pour over ice. Add a slice of lemon, mint, or fresh fruit for an extra burst of flavor. For a smoother, less astringent taste, try cold brewing by steeping in cold water for 6-12 hours in the fridge—this method is especially great for green, white, and herbal teas. 

Whether you’re looking for a cooling sip on a hot day or a caffeine-free option with herbal blends, Himalko Tea delivers a refreshing iced experience with each cup!

Loose leaf tea has a rich, ancient history that spans cultures and centuries. It began in China over 5,000 years ago, with Emperor Shen Nong’s legendary discovery, and became a cultural treasure during the Tang Dynasty. The tradition spread to Japan, where it became a meditative practice in the Japanese tea ceremony, and eventually made its way to Europe in the 16th century, becoming a luxury enjoyed by aristocrats. In America, tea played a historic role, with the Boston Tea Party symbolizing resistance to British rule.

In Nepal, tea cultivation began in the 19th century, though Nepali loose-leaf tea gained international recognition only recently. Grown in the Himalayan highlands,
Nepali teas are cherished for their unique flavors and high quality, thanks to the region’s pure air, rich soil, and ideal climate.

In modern times, there’s been a revival of loose-leaf tea, especially organic varieties. Health-conscious consumers are drawn to its purity and sustainable cultivation.
