Darjeeling White Orchid First Flush Tea
A sublime Grand Cru first flush from Darjeeling's celebrated Turzum and Puttabong gardens. Green-golden infusion with notes of geranium, mango, pomegranate, and cherry blossom. Delicately oxidised with the pale colour of green tea yet the complex, brisk character of a fine black tea. Sourced from ethically certified estates.

This Grand Cru tea offers a green-golden, shimmering infusion that's smooth and fruity with an exceptionally fine fragrance. Notes of geranium, mango, pomegranate, lotus, cherry blossom and pistachio unfold with each sip.
First flush teas from Darjeeling are amongst the most sought-after in the world. These spring teas from the Himalayan foothills possess a unique character that defies easy classification. Barely oxidised, they're too delicate to be called black tea, yet they carry a briskness and richness quite distinct from green tea. The infusion is pale as a green tea, but the flavour profile is wonderfully different—complex, refreshing and deeply fragrant with an aroma reminiscent of fresh blackcurrants on the bush.
We source exclusively from gardens with sound social and environmental practices in place. Our teas belong to respected associations including IMO, USDA Organic, India Organic, Ethical Tea Partnership, Fairtrade, UTZ and the Rainforest Alliance.
This is a carefully selected blend of two of the finest first flush lots from the Turzum and Puttabong gardens—the finest the season had to offer.
