Description
Sourced from the lofty elevations of the celebrated organic Tingling division, this remarkable First Flush 2026 Darjeeling tea is a true seasonal treasure. Carefully hand-plucked by skilled tea artisans from young AV2 clonal bushes flourishing at over 3,000 feet in the scenic Mirik Valley of Darjeeling, this tea beautifully captures the elegance and purity of high-altitude spring harvests.
Only the most tender two leaves and a bud are selected to craft this exceptional lot. The dry leaves display a vivid bright green appearance, gracefully interwoven with fine silver needle-like tips cloaked in a delicate silken sheen. The aroma is enchanting and refined — a captivating bouquet of white roses and lilies, uplifted by lively hints of sun-ripened citrus fruits such as oranges and grapefruits, gently rounded by a soft whisper of sweet vanilla.
When steeped for a full five minutes, the infusion unveils a light, radiant golden-yellow liquor. Each sip reveals a graceful medley of sweet tropical fruit notes, elegantly balanced with lingering impressions of zesty citrus and delicate honeyed sweetness, leaving a smooth and memorable finish on the palate.
