SKU: T/EX0066/GREEN OOLONG /26
A distinctive Monsoon oolong from Turzum Tea Estate, crafted from Pure Chinary bushes to retain the freshness of the season while revealing remarkable depth in the cup. Its finely twisted green leaf gives way to fresh meadow aromatics and an unusual creamy butterscotch character, while the liquor balances tender vegetal sweetness with a gentle savoury umami note. Smooth, rounded and naturally sweet, this is a nuanced expression of Chinary character during the rains.
A smooth Chinary Monsoon oolong with fresh green character, creamy butterscotch and a lingering savoury umami finish.

Spread over evenly gradual slopes facing the the mesmerising Mirik valley, Sungma and Turzum is one of the most beautiful tea estate in Darjeeling. The Tea Estate is located in the Rung Bong valley famous for growing exclusive quality tea.

The garden is around 30 kms from the Darjeeling town and is connected by excellent road network.
The garden was established by British Planter in 1863 – 1868 with excellent quality of chinaries seed stock by random assortment. The present tea estate is combination of two estates namely Sungma and Turzum.
