From Teabox

A rare high-grown tea from the award-winning estate of Billimalai, this is a decadent choice for an uncanny green tea.
The cup profile of this hand-crafted tea is palpably distinct and interlaced with varied flavors. A clean cup with milky notes and classic vegetal nuances underscore the aroma. The palate carries these notes further and a pleasant sweetness lingers gently in the finish. This is a high-caffeine green tea, for relish and refreshment.+

Way outside my comfort zone with this sample from Teabox. I’m getting to the last 8 tea sample from Nilgiri and half are green teas. The dry leaves are drab green slightly twisted and large. There’s no perceptible scent other than hay. The wet leaves are bright green and waft of cooked asparagus. The soup is pale pale yellow green with flavors of muted fiddlehead, asparagus and a slight hint of white pepper when first on the tongue. There is a bit of sweetness that pops up in the aftertaste. Pleasant surprise for I had no idea India made green teas. Nice boost too. 2.3g/3min 180ml/180°.
