Darjeeling First Flush
- About
- Brewing tips
Tasting notes: Crisp, white peach, muscatel
Origin: Darjeeling, India
Cultivar: AV2 clonal
Elevation: 2060m
Oxidation: ⦿⦿○○○This premium spring-harvested tea tastes like green tea with champagne-like muscatel notes.
Why we love it:
- It's made of delicate new leaves harvested in the early onset of spring, the most premium grade of Darjeeling, sourced from a top tea estate.
- It's called the "Champagne of teas" for its signature muscatel grape flavour.
- It is much greener (less oxidised) than most black teas, and tastes light and refreshing with a pale yellow liquor.
- It has an abundance of buds, the most prized part of the tea plant, which give it a delicate sweetness and a softer texture.
