Our Darjeeling Second Flush is from the Phuguri Estate, a tea garden located outside Mirik, and is an exquisite cup of tea. This orthodox Darjeeling has an overtly pronounced muscatel grape note, characteristic of a Second Flush Darjeeling, but also yields notes of honey, cinnamon, and star anise. A light maltiness gives way to a robust, woody finish. A well-balanced and unique Second Flush.
FTGFOP. Thunderbolt Darjeeling is a second flush Darjeeling–where a first flush Darjeeling is harvested in the spring, the second flush is harvested later in the season, in June, and has a vastly different flavor profile. This tea is full-bodied and prized for its muscatel notes. It yields a darker and bolder brew than a delicate first flush Darjeeling, and is a perennial favorite at afternoon tea services.
We recommend steeping Thunderbolt Darjeeling for 3 minutes at 195°.
Ingredients: Black tea.
