Darjeeling Winter Frost Black Tea

A rare and limited-edition Darjeeling autumn harvest crafted from prized AV2 bushes grown at elevations of 7,000 feet. Harvested during the final weeks of October, when Himalayan temperatures approach freezing, the slow-growing leaves develop remarkable depth, sweetness, and complexity, resulting in a truly distinctive seasonal tea.

The dark leaves, abundant with golden tips, brew into a bright, transparent amber-orange liquor. The cup reveals layers of ripe fruit, delicate florals, and classic Darjeeling character, beautifully complemented by notes of honey, plum, and raisins.

Smooth and well-rounded, the tea delivers exceptional richness without any harshness or astringency.

Elegant, expressive, and exceptionally rare, this autumn harvest offers a long, honeyed finish that lingers gracefully long after the final sip.
