Founder's Selection $88

Product Info

The rarest four. Chosen first.

Every collection has teas that the founder reaches for before anyone else — not because they are the most accessible, but because they are the most extraordinary. The Celestial Silver Reserve, hand-plucked from unopened buds in small batches that exist for only a few days each year. The Himalayan Bronze Oolong, from century-old China bushes in Kangra's most overlooked valley, making one of India's rarest oolongs. The First Light of Darjeeling, the season's earliest spring harvest, delicate and unrepeatable. And the Frosted Crest Nilgiri, a winter frost black that drinks like nothing else from the Blue Mountains — floral, bright, and shaped entirely by cold.

None of these teas are everyday teas. Each one asks you to slow down, brew with care, and pay attention. Together they represent the upper edge of what India's hill gardens produce when conditions, season, and craft align perfectly.

This set is an invitation to the rarest side of the KVL collection. Best enjoyed plain, without milk, to appreciate the full character of each tea.
