A first flush blend of top grade teas, sourced from the Darjeeling Tea Estates of Phoobsering, Gopaldhara, Giddapahar, Singbulli, and Puttabong, Darjeeling First Flush Tea produces a fantastic all-round tea that reveals the traditional, complex flavours of Darjeeling teas.

This highly sought-after tea, grown in the Darjeeling region of West Bengal, India, is known for its unique flavour profile that is characterised by a delicate floral aroma, a light, crisp taste, and a bright, refreshing finish.

Darjeeling tea is made from the Camellia sinensis plant, grown at high elevations of typically between 4,000 and 7,000 feet above sea level, in the rolling hills of Darjeeling. Tea bushes are grown in well-drained, fertile soil and exposed to bright sunlight to produce high-quality tea leaves. First flush teas are harvested in early spring, typically during March and April, when the leaves are considered to be the freshest. The tea leaves are picked by hand, with only the youngest and most tender leaves selected for processing.

Ava ★★★★★

The blend of leaves from five different estates gives each cup a unique, complex flavor that keeps me coming back. I love how the first flush brings out that crisp, bright taste I look for in a morning tea.

Sebastian P. ★★★★★

The floral notes from the Gopaldhara leaves really come through in the first steep, and it’s bright without any bitterness—I’ve already gone through half the bag in a week.

Avery ★★★★★

The light golden liquor of this first flush has a delicate muscatel note I've never tasted in other Darjeelings. It's incredibly smooth without any bitterness, even when I steeped it a bit too long accidentally.
