Second Flush Darjeeling – The ‘Champagne’ of Teas
Our Second Flush Darjeeling is truly the pinnacle of sophistication—often celebrated as the “champagne of teas” due to its refined character and delicate flavour profile. This special ‘vintage’ is harvested during the second flush, a period in late spring when the tea leaves have matured under the warm sun in the Darjeeling region, producing a tea with unique depth and complexity.
The second flush is particularly prized among tea connoisseurs, as it offers a richer, fuller-bodied flavour than the earlier spring harvest, known as the first flush. While the first flush is light and floral with bright, grassy notes, the second flush yields a smooth, clean taste with distinctive muscatel tones—a hint of fruitiness that is often likened to the refreshing sweetness of muscat grapes. This natural fruity undertone is complemented by subtle floral notes, creating a layered, sophisticated flavour that sets it apart from other black teas.
Though traditionally enjoyed as an afternoon tea, our Second Flush Darjeeling’s well-rounded profile makes it perfect for any time of day. Its perfect balance and nuanced flavour mean it can be enjoyed on its own or paired with or without milk.
Indulge in our Second Flush Darjeeling and enjoy a tea that encapsulates the essence of the Himalayan foothills—suave, distinguished, and unforgettable.
