Rohini First Flush Nectar of Darjeeling Tea - Honey Oolong & Spring Flavour - Crafted from AV2 Bushes

Delicate, aromatic, and exceptionally refined — Rohini First Flush Nectar of Darjeeling is a rare spring harvest tea crafted from prized AV2 bushes at the renowned Rohini Tea Estate. Often celebrated as part of the legacy of the “Champagne of Teas,” this exquisite first flush offering captures the freshness, elegance, and vitality of Darjeeling's earliest harvest.

Following the tea bushes' natural winter dormancy, the first tender shoots emerge with remarkable flavour concentration and aromatic complexity. Only the finest buds and leaves are carefully hand-plucked and meticulously sorted to ensure exceptional quality. Minimal machine intervention and precise oxidation preserve the tea's delicate character, resulting in a unique Honey Oolong-style first flush tea that beautifully bridges freshness and complexity.

The dry leaves are composed of attractive whole tippy leaves with a subtle greenish hue. Once brewed, they produce a luminous golden liquor that delights the senses with layers of flavour. Notes of pear, crisp apple, vanilla, and delicate white wildflowers unfold gracefully in the cup, complemented by a naturally sweet honey-like finish. Remarkably smooth and completely free from astringency, the tea leaves behind a lingering sweetness that refreshes and rejuvenates with every sip.
