From Adagio Teas

Darjeeling First Flush is from the famous and beautiful Balasun estate. It is rare and exquisite in layered, complex, notes of orchard blossoms and delicate fruit crispness. It is only the eighth tea plucking of the season from very early spring and speaks to the experience and craftsmanship of the producer.

Ingredients: First flush Darjeeling black tea

Steeping Instructions: Steep at 212° for 3 minutes.

Adagio CommuniTEA – April 20th, 2023

Yay, I caught up to today! \o/

I’m not really a fan of first flush Darjeeling, so this isn’t my favorite. It has some nice hay notes to it, but it’s also a bit sharp and floral. I tend to like later flushes better, as to me they’re a bit more malty and smooth.

Still a pleasant cuppa, even if it’s not my personal favorite type of tea.
