Camellia sinensis

A first flush from Darjeeling is generally representative
of the delicate nuances that make the region so popular as a tea producer.
This early spring crop did not disappoint with a muscatel perfume and
lingering sweetness on the palate that encourages descriptions from herbaceous
to winey. From the very first tea estate in the Darjeeling district, this
tea has a long-established reputation for the highest quality. Keep your
steep time just under three minutes to preserve the floral qualities.
Brew just under 3 minutes at 210°F to preserve
the floral qualities; 1 steeping.
