Rohini Darjeeling Summer Second Flush Fruity Oolong Tea with Hints of Peach & Berries - Made from Clonal Bushes

Rohini Darjeeling Summer Second Flush Fruity Oolong Tea is a distinctive early second flush oolong crafted from premium clonal bushes at the Rohini Tea Estate. Hand-plucked during the first week of May from elevations between 1500 and 3000 feet, the tea is made from fine single or two leaves and a bud. The slow seasonal growth and dry weather of early summer create ideal conditions for producing expressive oolong teas. Carefully semi-oxidized, the brownish leaves with delicate silvery tips unfurl into a bright orange liquor with a smooth, medium-bodied cup. Fruity aromas are complemented by gentle notes of peach and ripe berries, delivering a naturally sweet, rounded flavour without bitterness or astringency.

The Tea Story

Early May marks one of the most fascinating periods at Rohini Tea Estate. Slow leaf growth, warm days and relatively dry conditions create a brief window that favours exceptional oolong production.
