Description

A fragrant tea with floral-fruity notes and a classic Darjeeling first flush briskness from one of the most popular Organic tea gardens of Darjeeling.

DRY TEA: Small chinary leaves with a grayish green appearance. It is moderately tippy with fragrance of freshly cut grass, nuts and pepper (the characteristic spicyness of Darjeeling).
INFUSION: Jungle green with rich nose of exquisite floral, citrus and ripe peach notes.You wish you could bottle this perfume!
CUP: A light golden liquor with layers of sweet delicate floral aroma. In the mouth floral flavors with sweetness of ripe peach, and a hint of vanilla come alive. It has a briskness, an astringent note that is perfectly in balanced with the sweet, cool character of the tea.After you are done with the cup, there is a long lingering menthol-like aftertaste that leaves you refreshed and inspired.
