First Flush Darjeeling Loose Leaf Tea
Fragrant. Complex. Uplifting.
There's a special time in the tea calendar: the first flush of the season, and it's our favourite few weeks of the year. First flush is the first pick, from one garden up in the Darjeeling hills while the bushes are only just waking up. It's light and bright, and a little bit floral.
It tastes different every year, just like a fine wine, depending on what the weather did. This is the one we get properly excited about when it lands. Have it black. It really doesn't need milk.
