Organic Darjeeling First Flush 2026 Selimbong SFTGFOP1 DJ2
This organic Darjeeling first flush tea comes from the historic Selimbong Tea Garden, founded in 1866. The plantation is located on the India-Nepal border at altitudes ranging from approximately 1,200 to 1,600 meters. The roughly 300-hectare area is characterized by tea plants, orange trees, and natural shade vegetation.
The combination of high altitude, fresh mountain air, and nutrient-rich soil ensures the even development of the tea leaves. The tea is carefully hand-picked using the classic “two leaves and a bud” method. The DJ2 denotes an early first flush harvest with balanced freshness and a stable flavor profile.
The cup displays a clear, light golden color profile. On the palate, the tea is fresh and balanced. Floral notes blend with a delicate, slightly fruity structure. The aroma is round, clear, and lingers on the finish.
