The bristle of buds are honed artfully to create a refined character that breathes a soft air of oak wood and caresses with a buttery body of vanilla and sweet pea flowers, while nourishing with antioxidants and relaxing the senses with a fresh spell of spring flowers.
DRY LEAF
Silver needle white tea with long and elaborate slivers of tender hairy silver buds enclosing layer within layer sweet woody notions of oak wood and vanilla.
INFUSION
Furled buds freshen up in a dewy pistachio to emanate sweet floral elements of wisteria and a delicate trace of earthy fresh clover.
LIQUOR
Creamy ivory liquor softly perfumed like sweet pea flowers with a feathery floral body and a velvety viscosity of sweet vanilla that gradually elevates and gives way to meditatively bright lemon piquancy.
ABOUT THE GARDEN
GIDDAPAHAR TEA GARDEN
Giddapahar, Nepali for a 'the mountain of vultures', is a high rocky cliff at 4500 feet above sea level literally perched by a venue of vultures that watch over with their sturdy gaze upon the Southern Valley of Kurseong. Established in the year 1888, the garden has a small tea growing area of 94 hectares exclusively dedicated to pure China and Chinese Hybrid bushes. A majorly east facing garden, Giddapahar is a stalwart producer of orthodox teas and is one of the few gardens to use original orthodox machinery from the olden days like a 100 year old rolling machine from Birmingham. Some of oldest high elevation bushes are found in the garden's sections that manifest unique bright and brisk golden liquors and the most splendid Muscatel 2nd flushes in the entire district.

The host of the store took the time to lay out teas, from white to black, for us to taste. After multiple tastings and careful decision with help from the host we decided on our purchase. I would recommend stopping in for their attention to detail and knowledge of the various teas they have on offer.
