Traditional Darjeeling First Flush Black Tea is a celebration of spring's first harvest from the renowned tea gardens of Darjeeling. Harvested during the early months of the growing season, the young leaves develop a fresh and lively character that defines the distinctive profile of First Flush teas.

The broken leaf style allows for a quicker infusion, producing a bright golden liquor with remarkable freshness and clarity. Delicate floral notes, gentle grassy undertones, and a crisp finish combine to create a tea that is both refreshing and refined. Often regarded as the most delicate of Darjeeling harvests, First Flush tea offers a true taste of the Himalayan spring and the craftsmanship of Darjeeling's tea-growing tradition.

DRY LEAF

The dry leaves display a crisp appearance with attractive shades of greenish-brown and copper highlights. Their aroma reveals fresh grassy notes, delicate woody nuances, and hints of spring vegetation, reflecting the freshness of the season's first harvest.

INFUSION

The infused leaves develop shades of purplish-brown and olive hues, releasing aromas reminiscent of wet dew-covered grass, fresh wood, and gentle earthy undertones. The infusion is bright, clean, and expressive, highlighting the tea's youthful character.

LIQUOR

The liquor brews into a bright golden-yellow cup with a light and brisk body. Notes of sweet herbs, fresh spring flowers, and meadow-like freshness unfold gracefully across the palate. A gentle astringency adds vibrancy to the cup, leading to a clean, refreshing finish that is characteristic of premium Darjeeling First Flush teas.
