2024 Okayti Classic Darjeeling Second Flush Black Tea Ex 49

Okayti Estate, once a favorite of royalty, produces teas with pleasant astringency, sweetness, and delightful fruity and woody notes. This Second Flush tea is mellow, smooth, and a testament to the estate's rich history.

First Flush teas are harvested in early spring and are known for their light, floral, and delicate flavors. Second Flush teas, harvested in late spring to early summer, are richer, more full-bodied, and often have distinctive muscatel notes. The leaves of Second Flush teas are darker, and the brew is usually more robust compared to First Flush teas.

Muscatel teas typically have a sweet, fruity flavor with hints of muscat grapes, raisins, and sometimes a floral undertone. They may also have a subtle spiciness or nuttiness, contributing to their complex and rich taste profile.
