Set high in the Himalayas, Darjeeling is cherished by connoisseurs for yielding teas of extraordinary aromatic depth. Many of the gardens from which we source our teas were founded in the 19th century. While cultivar selection is a factor, the real complexity of Darjeeling teas is to be explored in the diversity of terrain in the gardens. The range in elevation, the pitch of the slope and the amount of sun exposure lead to distinctive differences in character. Each garden has a signature aroma profile. While the first flush produces greenish-golden teas with a tight structure and floral bouquet, the second flush is treasured for more ripened notes of fruits and features a lovely orange-red infusion. The dried leaves feature both chunky tips and buds. In this lot from the Shree Dwarika Garden in the Tukvar Valley, we taste baked lemon and caramelized citrus notes, a slight Muscatel character and a unique tangerine and bitter orange flower aroma with balanced briskness and ripeness.
