ROHINI Moonlight Darjeeling Spring Black Tea

The tea base is sourced from the Rohini Estate in the heart of the Himalayas, located in the Darjeeling Kurseong Valley. As a representative of the younger generation of estates, it spans 146 hectares of terraced tea gardens with significant altitude variation. The tea trees, planted in 1966, have yet to reach their full maturity, with 108 hectares of young tea trees and 38 hectares of Chinese small-leaf tea trees, producing the rare summer-harvested muscatel grape black tea. Surrounded by high mountains, nourished by monsoon rains, and with fertile soil, the estate provides an ideal environment for tea cultivation.
This spring-picked tea base comes from the highest altitude section of the estate, utilizing the AV2 variety, which has matured over more than a decade. It is one of the finest selections in the Darjeeling hybrid tea series, with a complex, ever-changing flavor and a distinctive, refined aroma. The rich fragrance of orange blossom and honey tangerine intertwines with the sweetness of the fruit, creating a multi-layered fresh sweetness. The tea liquor is honeyed and fresh, delicate and luxurious in taste.
