If you want a black tea with real estate character, August Uncommon's Rare Leaves Gold brings you a single-estate Nepalese leaf grown on one high-altitude garden at 1,800 meters. The cup is layered and characterful, with tasting notes of roasted barley, clover and honey. It suits both your morning brew and a slow afternoon pot.
Why You'll Love This August Uncommon Black Tea
- One garden, one origin: every leaf comes from a single Nepalese estate, so the cup reflects that garden's elevation, soil and seasons rather than a mix of sources.
- Distinctive tasting notes: toasty roasted barley meets a soft clover and honey sweetness for a balanced, rounded cup.
- Selectively harvested leaf: the leaves are hand-picked for a whole-leaf tea with depth that can unfold over more than one infusion.
- Pure and simple: just black tea, with no added flavorings or fillers.
- Two ways to stock up: choose the 60g tin to keep the leaves protected from light and air, or the 250g refill bag to top up your tin once it runs low.
- A thoughtful gift: a single-estate Nepalese black tea is a welcome find for anyone who likes exploring origins beyond the usual breakfast blends.
Frequently Asked Questions

Expect roasted grain notes reminiscent of barley, softened by gentle clover and a honeyed sweetness. The result is a full yet balanced cup that rewards a second steep.
Which sizes of August Uncommon's Rare Leaves Gold Nepalese black tea are available?
This loose-leaf tea comes in a 60g tin or a 250g refill bag. The refill bag is handy for topping up your tin when it runs low.
