About this tea

First flush teas are picked in early spring as the bushes wake from winter. This reserve lot is light and lively — closer in spirit to a green tea than a breakfast black.

Enjoy it without milk to appreciate the aroma, and try a second infusion for a softer, sweeter cup.

Highlights

  • Spring first flush
  • Single-region Darjeeling
