Snow View First Flush Darjeeling

Fresh from the Foothills

Meet Snow View First Flush Darjeeling, a beautifully fresh Indian tea from the historic Snow View Tea Garden, established in 1870 near the Himalayan foothills.

Harvested between 7–10 March 2024, this first flush tea captures the fresh, lively character of the early spring harvest.

With its delicate leaves & distinctive flavour, it's a lovely choice for anyone who enjoys lighter, more refreshing speciality teas.

What Does Snow View First Flush Taste Like?

Expect a fresh, grassy tea with gentle vegetal notes, delicate hints of peach & a bright amber liquor.

Light & refreshing, it offers a lovely contrast to the richer, more muscatel character of a traditional Second Flush Darjeeling.

A little taste of spring, whatever the weather!

A Tea Garden with a Wild Side

Snow View sits close to forest reserves where elephants, rhinos, deer & other wildlife roam.

The estate lies along an elephant migration route, making wildlife protection an important part of its story. In 2020, Snow View was recognised through an Elephant Friendly tea certification initiative.

To enjoy its delicate flavour, brew at 80–90°C for 3–5 minutes, adjusting the strength to suit your taste.

Fresh, fruity & full of character. A first flush well worth discovering!
