TWS Darjeeling First Flush Black Tea

Specialty: Plucked during early spring, Darjeeling First Flush is often called the “Champagne of Teas.” Made from the season’s very first young shoots and tender leaves, this tea offers a light, bright cup with fresh floral notes, gentle sweetness, and a soft hint of green freshness. The liquor is pale golden and pleasantly brisk — a true celebration of spring in the mountains.

Why It’s Unique: The cool Himalayan air, misty mornings, and slow spring growth give First Flush teas their signature lively character. These early leaves carry the purest expression of Darjeeling’s terroir, making this flush one of the most sought-after harvests of the year.

Food Pairing: Fresh fruits, light sandwiches, soft cheeses, butter cookies, and almond cake.

Best Time to Drink: Late morning or early afternoon — perfect for a refreshing, uplifting break.
