Dry Tea Leaf:
Appearance: It's a tea lover's delight to touch and hold the tea in the palm: Long brownish slender and woolly feeling bathed in gold. Mesmerizing interplay of brown and golden tips is simply heavenly. The tea is of optimal quality and consists of the two leaf and a bud, the best in terms of picking practices and standards maintained by this organic high elevation tea garden.
Fragrance: The dry tea leaves is a mixture of musk, spicy notes and floral fruity aroma. It is a typical AV2 fragrance which tea lovers of premium Darjeeling second flush tea would relate to with teas coming from Arya.
Liquor:
Appearance: Sparkling clear liquor with bright shades of tinted sunset.
Fragrance: Fragrance of tropical flora and sweet musk and ripe mango is noted in the cup.
Flavour: It's a tea lovers delight. The tea pampers the senses with a complex set of smooth buttery taste combined with floral, fruity and musky notes. It's pleasantness of rich thick body caresses' the senses and is felt throughout the sipping process. A slight feel-good astringency is felt which seems to engulf and tickle the mouthfeel gradually waxing and waning right after the sip. Lingering tastes of juicy Himalayan fruits and most notably that of ripe Alphonso caresses the senses along with notes of musk and spices. A mark of an excellent summer tea with complex tastes, made with care and finesse which is also apparent from the perfect coppery infused leaves.
It's a high grade premium Darjeeling tea, a must have for any second flush tea lover.
