In the heart of the Himalayan hills, where whispers of spring dance on the breeze, exists an exceptional and divine harvest. Each Spring, TWG Tea embarks on a pilgrimage to the Northeast region of India in West Bengal – high in the foothills of the Himalayan Plateaus – in search of some of the finest and most celebrated Darjeeling first flush harvests.
Over deep mountain valleys shrouded in cool misty clouds lies a verdant terrain: a winding passage of luscious, terraced steps where some of the most revered tea leaves are cultivated on family-owned estates. The unique terroir of Darjeeling, with its cool temperatures, high altitude of up to 2,500 meters, distinctive soil and rainfall, imparts a unique and naturally occurring quality and flavour that yields some of the most exceptional and highly sought-after black teas in the world, where no two gardens or harvests taste alike.
Handcrafted in the most natural and artisanal tradition, 2024 Darjeeling First Flush from the Grand Mode Tea Collection yields a bright, golden infusion with a unique peachy muscatel taste. Rich in aroma and complex in flavour, this tea boasts outstanding notes of ripe fruits and nuts.
Preciously encased in a limited-edition tea tin of striking green adorned with gold hues, discover the terroir and remarkable flavour of the season in every cup.
