Darjeeling Summer Green Tea
Crafted during the second flush season, Darjeeling Summer Green Tea is an exceptional whole-leaf Darjeeling green tea known for its remarkable smoothness and depth. Carefully grown under natural shade, the leaves retain their vibrant character and develop a distinctive flavour profile that sets this tea apart.
The dark green leaves brew into a bright greenish-yellow liquor with a rich, smooth texture and no astringency. Notes of umami, fresh pine, and sweet cooked beans unfold gracefully across the palate, creating a balanced and deeply satisfying cup.
Refreshing yet complex, this summer harvest finishes with a lingering natural sweetness and a clean aftertaste, making it one of the finest green teas of the season.
