Gopaldhara Darjeeling First Flush Flowery Broken Orange Pekoe Black Tea

Fresh, crisp, and beautifully expressive — Gopaldhara Darjeeling First Flush Flowery Broken Orange Pekoe (BOP) Black Tea is harvested during the early spring season from the highest peaks of the Gopaldhara Tea Estate, rising up to 7,000 feet. The cool climate and slow growth at these elevations give this tea its distinctive first flush brightness.

The dry leaves appear greenish and broken, a signature of high-quality BOP teas, and brew into a clear, bright yellow cup. Expect a lively, refreshing flavour with crisp mountain freshness, subtle floral sweetness, and a pleasant touch of astringency that adds structure without overpowering the cup.

The finish is strong and lingering — capturing the essence of classic Darjeeling spring teas. Balanced, aromatic, and beautifully uplifting, this tea is crafted for daily enjoyment, offering exceptional value without compromising quality.
