“Oh hey, another unrated Butiki… Anyhow, this was yummy. I have no clue what it is. Darjeeling? It was light and flavourful. No astringency. Need to pay more attention next time. In other news, the...” Read full tasting note

Description

Our Limited Hand Rolled Giddapahar originates from the family owned Giddapahar Tea Estate near Kurseong (Kurseong translates to Land of the White Orchids) in the Darjeeling District of West Bengal, India. The Giddapahar Tea Estate is also known as Eagles Cliff and is situated on a mountain at an elevation of 4,800 feet. Only 11 kilograms (just over 24 pounds) of this rare tea were produced. Our Limited Hand Rolled Giddapahar is a 2014 second flush Darjeeling and has sweet toasted almond, peach, and blackberry notes. Jasmine, hay, and muscatel notes are also present. This tea has gorgeous hand rolled leaves, a bright golden liquor, and a heavier mouthfeel with little astringency.
