Description
Blender’s Notes Himalayan Darjeeling ~ Second Flush:
Himalayan Darjeeling Second Flush is basically summer in a teacup ~ Himalayan Darjeeling Second Flush is the early‑summer harvest that rolls in once the Himalayan sun has had a chance to wake the tea bushes up properly. By May and June, those leaves have soaked up just enough warmth to develop that famous muscatel flavor — a naturally sweet, grape‑kissed note that makes you wonder how on earth a tea managed to taste a little like fruit, a little like honey, and a little like “oh wow, I need another sip.” The brew comes out a rich amber with a fuller body than the delicate spring flush, almost like the tea decided to grow up a bit and show off. It’s smooth, lightly spiced, and wonderfully complex… the kind of cup that makes you feel fancy even if you’re still in your pajamas.
