Darjeeling FTGFOP 1 Spring Valley
Premium Himalayan Black Tea: A Symphony of First and Second Flush
This exceptional Darjeeling blend harmoniously combines the bright, floral notes of spring's first flush with the rich muscatel character of summer's second flush. From the misty heights of the Himalayas, each harvest brings its distinct personality - the first flush contributing delicate citrus notes and gentle astringency, while the second flush adds depth with its grape-like muscatel flavor and fuller body. Together, they create a sophisticated tea that showcases the finest qualities of both harvesting seasons.

Heritage of the Himalayas
Darjeeling tea, often called the "Champagne of Teas," has been cultivated in the foothills of the Himalayas since the 1850s. This unique terroir, with its high altitude, misty climate, and rich soil, creates ideal conditions for producing some of the world's finest teas. The region's historic estates have maintained traditional growing methods while adapting modern practices for quality and sustainability. Each spring and summer harvest continues a legacy of tea craftsmanship that has defined Darjeeling's reputation for over 150 years.
