Description

Certified Organic

This organic First Flush Darjeeling comes from the renowned Soom Tea Estate, one of Darjeeling's most celebrated gardens, nestled high in the Himalayan foothills. Established in the late 1800s, Soom Estate is known for producing exceptionally elegant teas that capture the freshness and vitality of the spring harvest.

Plucked during the very first harvest of the season, this FTGFOP1 grade consists of beautifully fine, tippy leaves that produce a bright, golden liquor with remarkable clarity and aroma. First flush Darjeelings are prized for their lively, delicate character, making them some of the most sought-after teas in the world.

The cup is light-bodied and beautifully layered, offering delicate floral notes, hints of fresh spring greens, sweet stone fruit, and the classic muscatel character that has made Darjeeling famous. The finish is crisp, clean, and lingering, with a natural sweetness that shines when enjoyed without milk.

An exceptional tea for those who appreciate a refined, aromatic cup that showcases the unique terroir and craftsmanship of Darjeeling's spring harvest.
