Second flush Darjeelings are celebrated for their pronounced muscatel grape flavor, and this lot from the famed Gopaldhara Estate is no exception. Hand picked from the steep slopes, the leaves undergo a meticulous oxidation and rolling process that preserves the terroir. This delicate approach ensures a cup of unrivaled purity, devoid of astringency or harshness. We have been working with Gopaldhara Estate for over 10 years to achieve this level of picking standards, processing, and overall cup quality - these second flush teas are something to be enjoyed and cherished.

Second flush Darjeelings are harvested in the summer, after the spring harvest but before the monsoon season. They are traditionally allowed to oxidize fully thus resulting in a black tea.
