Rohini Darjeeling First Flush Classic Green Tea

Rohini Darjeeling First Flush Classic Green Tea is an elegant early-season green tea crafted at the Rohini Tea Estate from select green tea clones grown between 1500 and 3000 feet. Carefully plucked as very fine two leaves and a bud, the leaves are gently rolled without breaking, allowing them to unfurl naturally during brewing. Being non-oxidized, the tea preserves its fresh character and clarity. The yellowish-green rolled leaves brew into a light green, fully transparent liquor with a bright green infusion. The cup expresses vegetal freshness with pine notes and a slight pleasant bitterness that adds structure. Smooth and refreshing, it leaves a lingering aftertaste that reflects the vitality of the first flush harvest.
