Puttabong STGFOP1 Superb Darjeeling First Flush 2012

Black Tea by Happy Earth Tea

An elegant first flush with a clean, delicate fruity flavors. Very refreshing.

DRY TEA: Greyish green, nicely rolled, more wiry than Sungma or Rishihat. The leafy is tippy and has a bloom (resulting from fine pubescence from the leaf surface) , indicating quality plucking.

INFUSION: Delicate lime green, leaves largely intact. The nose (fragrance exuded by the infused leaf, also termed as aroma, bouquet) is stewed fruits.

CUP: Golden-amber liquor with a mellow fruity-floral fragrance. There is very little astringency, and the sweet aftertaste lingers long.

BREWING INSTRUCTIONS: Use a teaspoon of tea for a cup . Steep in freshly boiled water for 3 minutes. Strain before drinking.

This has an amazing fruity aroma – but it’s all natural folks! A straight-up Darjeeling NOT flavored but it sure makes ya guess!

The taste is delightful, too! There is a hint of lime, perhaps, and a springy-sweet bouquet of flowers.

This is a gentle darjeeling but darned tasty! The more I sip the more I like it! This is VERY good for a mellow tea! YUM!
