Darjeeling SFTGFOP Imperial Second Flush

Black Tea by TeaGschwendner

Ein Second Flush für hohe Ansprüche, je nach Ernteverlauf aus einem anderen Garten ausgesucht. Fein-würzig, mit leichter Süße. Reizvolle, hellbraune Tassenfarbe.

Zubereitungstip: 12 g Teeblätter (ca. 7 gestrichene Teelamaß) auf 1 Liter gefiltertes bzw. weiches kochendes Wasser; 3 Min. ziehen lassen; schmeckt ungesüßt oder mit einem kleinen Löffel weißem Kandis.

For sure one of my favorite Darjeelings of TeaGschwendner here in Germany. Typical Second Flush taste, with nice flowery nuances, and not too bitter. Great for the evening.

A very typical, strong, second flush darjeeling. It is selected from possible different gardens each year to have a constant flavor without any special “garden-aroma” like muscatel, extra-flowery, …

Therefore it is a good introductory tea to start an exploration into 2nd flush darjeeling nuances.

Has a strong enough flavor to go alongside some food (breadrolls or cookies, not a barbecue) without the aroma getting completely overshadowed.
