Young Mountain Tea

The story of Young Mountain Tea began with its founder, Raj Vable, working with a nonprofit to create dignified rural livelihoods at the border between India and Nepal called the Kumaon region. The first tea planted here was in the 1850s, but cultivating it was eventually abandoned, as exporting from the region proved difficult due to its location far from ports. The plants thrived in the wild, and in the 1990s, cultivation was revived to create livelihood for local communities. In 2013, Young Mountain Tea was born to make this tea available in retail markets. Organic tea, direct trade. Look for four varieties in the boxed tea aisle at West and East.
