Capital Tea Ltd.This came as one of the “golden tea pouches” Bruu offers with every episode of its monthly tea subscription. As I´m not a great fan of green teas, I sort of put it aside, to try it earlier on today. And it sure came as a nice surprise, as I fully agree to what is indicated on the discover sheet : “Our Sourenee has sappy, grassy notes, overlain with soft fruits and a deep grapey aroma.” it´s this grapey touch that I can appreciate here.
All of the info Bruu gives about this tea online :
What it is? An early second flush of roasted green tea.
Why we love it : Due to the altitudes, tricky growing conditions and limited space, the Darjeeling district only produces 1% of India’s tea, at just 8,000 tonnes each year. This makes our Sourenee extremely rare, as it’s one of only a few estates able to produce a green Darjeeling tea.
Where it’s from : The Sourenee Tea Estate, Mirik Valley, India. The estate has an elevation of 700-1300m above sea level. The soil in that region is a stiff red loam with clay.
How our drink hits the senses : These leaves never cease to give out such scrumptious scents. A real unique green tea that oozes quality.
The taste journey : Grassy notes, overlaid with soft fruits and a deep grapey aroma. The well twisted green leaf provides an earthy undertone.
Flavors: Grass, White Grapes
I have a second flush Darjeeling from the same estate, but mine is a regular black. It’s one of the best I’ve tried. (:
That´s interesting…where did you get it?
It was from Butiki, but they’re closed for business now.
‘Organic Sourenee Black Blossom’, if you’re interested in reading reviews and comparing the two.
I´ve just read it and it seems like it was a very interesting tea. A shame Butiki closed, as I always admire people with a passion to teach you more about it as well. I make a note of the estate and the black tea…ta!
Any time! (: Yeah, Stacy from Butiki was fantastic.
