Darjeeling White Tea

Description:

Darjeeling white tea is a high-quality and highly-prized tea variety originating from the renowned Darjeeling region in India. This tea is crafted from the young, unopened leaves and buds of the tea plant, which are carefully hand-plucked and minimally processed.

The hallmark of Darjeeling white tea is its subtle, delicate flavor profile. It offers a light, almost ethereal taste with nuanced notes of fresh flowers and gentle fruitiness. The aroma is equally enchanting, exuding a floral and slightly sweet fragrance that captures the essence of the Himalayan foothills where it's cultivated.
