Description

Our friends at Puttabong have done a great job with this tea. It is owned by Jayshree and is located north of Darjeeling town. This tea came towards the end of the first flush season in April. Brisk yet flavorful, with a rounder flavor than Teesta Valley 1st Flush. Hats off!

Ingredients

Black tea.

OK

Bought this because Namring seems unavailable, and it’s not nearly so good.

Amazing Darjeeling

This tea is amazing. One of the most delicate, floral, and smooth teas I had first. There is no astringency at all.

Fine 1st Flush Darjeeling

Great tea. Subtle fruity taste. I definitely will buy it again. Teesta Valley 1st Flush is still my favorite, however.
