SKU: S/DJ175/FTGFOP1 GREEN /26
Crafted from the prized China cultivar at the historic Sungma Tea Estate, DJ 175 is an elegant expression of Darjeeling green tea, meticulously processed to preserve the leaf's natural vitality and aromatic finesse. Produced without withering or oxidation, the freshly plucked leaves undergo a carefully controlled steaming process to arrest enzymatic activity, locking in their vibrant character and delicate vegetal sweetness.
Successive rolling and gentle drying stages refine the leaf while enhancing its complexity, resulting in a tea that is remarkably clean, luminous, and expressive of Sungma's high-elevation terroir. The cup offers a graceful balance of sweet freshness, tender vegetal nuances, and a lingering, refreshing finish that reflects both precision craftsmanship and the unmistakable elegance of the Darjeeling Himalayas.
A graceful expression of Sungma's Himalayan terroir, this China cultivar Second Flush Green Tea is meticulously crafted to preserve its pristine freshness and natural elegance. The cup unfolds with delicate vegetal sweetness, luminous clarity, and a refined, lingering finish—capturing the quiet sophistication of Darjeeling in every sip.
