Hand-plucked during the early spring flush at Risheehat Tea Estate, this exquisite black tea is carefully hand-rolled to preserve the tender leaf’s natural character. The fine craftsmanship results in greenish leaves with silver tips, yielding a light golden-yellow liquor with soft floral aromas. Delicate and smooth, this tea offers gentle floral sweetness and a lingering mellow finish — a graceful expression of Darjeeling’s spring harvest.
