Thurbo Summer Delight EX25 – SF23

Description

Thurbo plantation is located in the picturesque and captivating Mirik valley, nestled within the Darjeeling district. This esteemed tea estate, situated at an elevation ranging from 1000 to 2500 meters above sea level, annually yields some of the most exquisite and flavorful Darjeeling teas. Encompassing around 450 hectares, Thurbo primarily cultivates premium China, young clonal, and Assam hybrid bushes.

This remarkable 2nd flush 2023 Darjeeling tea epitomizes unparalleled quality and is meticulously hand-plucked during the peak of the harvest from the AV2 and T4 clonal bushes within this lush green tea estate of Darjeeling. The dry leaves are subjected to careful processing, sorting them into small sizes, and skillfully firing them, resulting in an abundant display of golden tips. As the dried leaves unfurl, an enchanting aroma of dark chocolates, honey, roasted nuts, and exotic spices fills the air.

Upon steeping for a full 5 minutes, the cup reveals a radiant golden orange liquor. Each sip offers a delightful experience that evokes the flavors of freshly baked cupcakes, walnuts, ripe and sweet apricots, and robust cardamom, leaving behind a lingering, sweet, and musky aftertaste on the palate.

This exceptional 2nd Flush 2023 Darjeeling tea stands as a testament to the artistry and meticulous craftsmanship employed in its production.
