Organic Darjeeling First Flush

Organic Darjeeling First Flush is a premium loose leaf tea that is highly sought after by tea connoisseurs around the world. This tea is made from the first harvest of the season, known as the «first flush,» which occurs in early spring when the tea bushes awaken from their winter dormancy. 

Grown in the Darjeeling district of India, this tea is harvested by hand and processed using traditional methods that have been passed down for generations. The leaves are carefully picked and then withered, rolled, oxidized, and dried to create a tea that is delicate and nuanced in flavor.

Caffeine Content: High

Flavor

The tea has a bright, golden brown color and a fresh, crisp taste that is invigorating and uplifting.
