Arya Spring China First Flush Darjeeling Black Tea 2024 - 50Gms

Arya Tea Estate in the East Darjeeling Valley is in the village known as Sidrabong.
The word 'Sidrabong' means 'the valley of anchovies' in the Nepali language. Although
established in 1885 as another colonial plantation, some vouch that the first tea
bushes were planted as early as 1765 by Buddhist monks or Aryas, after whom the
tea garden takes its name. A Monastery stands on the premises. Sidrabong is the
first village in India to get an electric power plant in 1897, mainly to operate the tea
factory. Arya Tea Garden is now known for its signature collection of specialty Jewel
teas, known as Pearl, Emerald, Diamond, and Ruby.

DRY LEAF

Elegant leaves in shades of olive and parakeet with long silver pubescent strands with a discerning freshness of ferns and sweet cocoa butter

INFUSION

Slender and serrated whole leaves holding on to tender unfurled buds in an even chartreuse colour with fresh notes of cucumber and gentle floral dandelions

LIQUOR

Light and shiny blonde liquor with tender evocation of petunias and a wispy insinuation of sweet pea flowers that braces with an intricacy of lush clovers and vanilla cream to gently pass onto a subdued echo of floral dandelions.
