A special spring-picked Darjeeling with a scent reminiscent of pineapple and chamomile

Plucked in spring in Singbuli Tea Estate which means 'Vast forest where you can get plenty of firewood' in the local language, these yellow-green leaves and snow-white tips emit a fresh green scent. Brewed lemon coloured water gives off a pineapple-like fruity aroma and a butterbur sprout-like wild green scent with a chamomile-like sweet lingering aroma. Feel the mysterious collaboration of tea makers' craftsmanship and spring of the Himalayas.

Following last spring, the first flush has arrived from Singbuli tea estate. The 2021 Singbuli Tea Estate DJ-8 has been almost sold out, but the DJ-10 that arrived this year is a special lot named Snow White that is by no means inferior to it. Last year's DJ-8 was a brand made from the Chinese variety, while this year's DJ-10 is made from the clonal variety. Among them, it is a brand made only with a variety called AV2. The appearance of the tea leaves, which contain many core buds wrapped in white downy hair, is just like the lingering snow that covers the meadow in early spring. While last year's DJ-8 had a crisp and refreshing green tone, the scent of DJ-10 is herbal like AV2 with a refreshing nuance like citrus peel, and the taste is transparent. The sweetness of the tea leaves leaves a pleasant aftertaste. In the past few years, the owner company has changed, and Singbuli Tea Estate has become a tea estate that delivers even better brands. If you tried last year's brand, please enjoy the comparison with this year's taste.

Singbuli Tea Estate

Founded in 1924, this tea estate is located at an altitude of 823m in the Mirik Valley area. Of the 473 hectares of tea garden, 75 hectares are planted with clonal varieties, and in the last few years it has gained worldwide attention as a tea estate that produces brands of wonderfully fragrant clonal varieties. It can be said that it is the result of earnest research and new attempts in all aspects of tea estate. Since 2009, it has switched to bio-organic farming methods, and is a tea estate that not only produces tea that is safe, has a good aroma and taste, but also operates based on fair trade.

A fragrance nurtured by the Himalayas, Darjeeling

Darjeeling tea is known as one of the world's three major black teas, and is called "the champagne of black tea" due to its delicate and strong aroma. Even if you don't like black tea, it's a famous production area. Darjeeling has three distinct quality seasons: spring, summer and autumn. Harvested in late March and early April, the First Flush is the tea leaves picked during the first harvest season of the year that tea fans around the world await. The bright yellow light blue gives off a greenish scent reminiscent of the green of the grasslands filled with the breath of spring. It's a particularly popular season for people in France, Germany, and Japan.
