The Tea Story

Harvested during the prized second flush season after the April showers, this tea captures the essence of Darjeeling’s summer. The leaves undergo long withering to reduce moisture and concentrate flavour, resulting in a bold muscatel punch balanced with fruity nuances of peach and plum. A true expression of Makaibari’s craftsmanship, this tea is both visually striking and sensorially rich.
