Rohini Rare & Reserve Imperial Handcrafted Ultra-Rare AV2 Darjeeling First Flush Silver Tips – Limited Edition

Rohini Rare & Reserve Imperial Handcrafted First Flush Silver Tips – Limited Edition. Ultra-Rare AV2 Darjeeling First Flush Tea with Silky Texture & Exotic Fruit Notes.

Exceptionally rare, delicately handcrafted, and produced in extremely limited quantity — the Rohini Rare & Reserve Imperial First Flush Silver Tips is among the most exclusive Darjeeling teas ever crafted. Produced from a tiny lot of just around 11 kg, this limited-edition tea comes from a secluded and pristine section of the renowned Rohini Tea Garden, nestled in the Himalayan foothills of Darjeeling.

Made exclusively from prized AV2 clones, the leaves are carefully hand-plucked using the classic two leaves and one bud standard. Unlike conventional processing, this tea undergoes multiple hand-operated oxidation techniques without mechanical intervention, preserving the leaf’s delicate character and complexity.

The result is a tea that is incredibly smooth, vibrant, and layered with flavour. The cup opens with a fresh, lively profile and a creamy silky texture, followed by nuanced notes of herbs, ripe banana, and crisp apple. As the tea evolves, the finish reveals lingering hints of mango sweetness and honey.

Light in appearance yet remarkably rich in flavour, this tea should not be mistaken for white tea — it is a masterfully oxidized first flush tea with extraordinary elegance and depth.
