Organic Darjeeling First Flush 2026 FTGFOP1 Phuguri DJ1
This organic Darjeeling first flush tea comes from the renowned Phuguri tea garden in the Mirik Valley. The plantation is located at an altitude of 1,000 to 1,800 meters at the foot of the Himalayas. Cool temperatures, frequent fog, and nutrient-rich soils ensure exceptional leaf quality.
Harvesting takes place in the spring using the classic “two leaves and a bud” method. This early picking, known as First Flush, yields particularly delicate and aromatic leaves. Processing is gentle to preserve the tea’s fresh character.
The cup displays a light, slightly yellowish color. The tea’s flavor is smooth and balanced. Floral notes meet a subtle fruitiness reminiscent of apricot. The aftertaste remains clean and long-lasting.
