About Us
A vital player in Nepal’s tea industry, Jasbire Tea stands as an exemplar of quality and community-driven production. Situated in the Ilam district, one of the premier tea-growing regions in Nepal, Jasbire Tea specializes in producing high-quality orthodox teas that reflect the distinct Himalayan terroir.
Jasbire Tea was established with the goal of empowering local farmers by creating a centralized facility where they could process their harvests close to their plantations, thus reducing transportation time and preserving the freshness of the leaves. Jasbire Tea handles various stages of tea processing, including withering, rolling, oxidizing, drying, and sorting, with careful attention to each step to bring out the full flavor potential of the leaves.
One of the standout aspects of Jasbire Tea is its emphasis on small-batch, hand-crafted techniques. While it embraces modern technology to enhance efficiency, we rely on artisanal methods to ensure each tea retains the authentic taste and quality associated with Nepali teas. To meet demand for larger orders we also offer SFTGOFP1 type of teas which can be produced in big quantities. This balance of tradition and innovation allows Jasbire Tea Processing Center to produce a variety of teas and meet various demands, including black, green, white, and oolong, each with unique flavor notes reflective of the high-altitude, mineral-rich soil of the Ilam region.
The meticulous processing at Jasbire tea gives our teas a well-defined flavor profile. Jasbire’s black teas are robust and aromatic, often showcasing rich muscatel flavors and hints of floral undertones typical of the Himalayan terroir. Green teas from Jasbire are crisp and slightly sweet, with vegetal and nutty notes, while white teas are delicate and fragrant, capturing a light, floral essence with hints of fruit. Our oolong teas are partially oxidized, resulting in a smooth, layered taste with complex fruity and floral notes that resonate with global tea connoisseurs.
Jasbire Tea is committed to sustainable farming and ethical production. By sourcing tea leaves from local small-scale farmers who grow their tea using organic methods, we not only ensure high-quality organic certified tea but also support environmentally responsible cultivation. Additionally, Jasbire plays a significant role in the socioeconomic development of the region, empowering local farmers by giving them fair prices for their produce and encouraging fair-trade practices. This model fosters a strong community-oriented approach, where profits are reinvested into local infrastructure and farmer training programs.
