Set high in the Himalayas, Darjeeling is cherished by connoisseurs for yielding teas of extraordinary aromatic depth. The Pussimbing Garden is organic certified and features beautiful natural flora in addition to the cultivated tea plants. The name Pussimbing translates as “full of natural streams,” and the garden certainly lives up to its name. The garden sits at a lofty elevation and frequently misted in fog, which contributes to its highly aromatic teas. The eagerly anticipated First Flush harvest in March-April produces teas with a brilliant golden infusion that captures the essence of spring. This lot from the high altitude, 120-year-old Pussimbing Garden is extraordinary with flavors of classic Muscatel, magnolia, wintergreen, natal plum flowers and honey wine. This is an amazing and classic Darjeeling offering.
