Margaret's Hope First Flush Darjeeling Caddy, 100g

Picture the scene: as the first spring rains spread across the Himalayan foothills, the Darjeeling tea gardens start to turn green in a flush of colour. The earliest harvest of the year is referred to as the “First Flush”, and is considered one of the finest teas to be produced worldwide. Grown at a dizzying 4000ft, this year’s Margaret’s Hope First Flush was picked, produced and packed in early April. With a gloriously thick, sweet aroma and a delicately floral flavour, it’s the perfect example of what makes First Flush Darjeeling the “Champagne of Teas”: you’ll also catch that classic muscatel sweetness Darjeeling tea is famous for.
