This is why, in India, for example, tea is differentiatedDarjeelingteafrom Assam, two iconic teas of Indian cultural heritage, one of which is grown at high altitudes and the other at low altitudes. As a result, Darjeeling tea and Assam tea each have their own fans despite their shared roots.
At Betjeman & Barton, tea from around the world pays homage to Asia in general, and to Korea and Nepal in particular. While less well-known and renowned than their Chinese, Indian, and Japanese neighbors, Korean and Nepalese teas are nonetheless actively contributing to the tea revival and, at the same time, confirming the highly symbolic and unifying nature of this comforting beverage, consumed for millennia on Asian soil.

This is the case with our infusion“Green mate”from Brazil, a green tea to be enjoyed as an herbal tea throughout the day, and from ourrooibosfrom South Africa with gourmet, fruity, floral and spicy notes.
