Description
Nestled in the misty hills of the Darjeeling region, the Barnesbeg Estate produces some of the finest teas in India. Grown at a high altitude and carefully hand-plucked during the very first awakening of spring, this First Flush Darjeeling offers a sophisticated expression of both terroir and meticulous craftsmanship. Once brewed, our Barnesbeg First Flush reveals a pale, luminous golden liquor with a vibrant, floral aroma. The cup is smooth and light-bodied, unfolding in delicate layers of spring blossoms, young peach, and a touch of fresh herbaceous brightness. You will notice the classic First Flush character - crisp, lively, and wonderfully astringent, finishing with a clean, lingering sweetness. Graceful and well-balanced, this tea captures the true essence of high-elevation Darjeeling in the springtime: elegant, nuanced, and refreshingly brisk. |
