A Superb Darjeeling!
The 1st Flush Sourani is quite superb!
A lovely bright colour, floral nose, with a touch of characteristic Darjeeling astringency.
Definitely my cup of tea!
A classic Darjeeling first flush
This is a garden I was unfamiliar with, and this first flush certainly does not disappoint. With all the characteristic astringency of a good Darjeeling, it weds the flowery bouquet with an earthy base to offer a rich flavor that lingers long in the mouth. There are hints of orange peel, freshly cut grass, almond and a loamy, almost smoky background. There's something redolent of a single malt whiskey in this tea, yet it is still a subtle, classic Darjeeling first flush. I'll be getting more of this one.
