A fragrant tea with floral-fruity notes and a classic Darjeeling first flush briskness from one of the most popular Organic tea gardens of Darjeeling.
DRY TEA: Small chinary leaves with a grayish green appearance. It is moderately tippy with fragrance of freshly cut grass, nuts and pepper (the characteristic spicyness of Darjeeling).
INFUSION: Jungle green with rich nose of exquisite floral, citrus and ripe peach notes.You wish you could bottle this perfume!
CUP: A light golden liquor with layers of sweet delicate floral aroma. In the mouth floral flavors with sweetness of ripe peach, and a hint of vanilla come alive. It has a briskness, an astringent note that is perfectly in balanced with the sweet, cool character of the tea.After you are done with the cup, there is a long lingering menthol-like aftertaste that leaves you refreshed and inspired.

Happy Earth TeaBacklog:
A lovely first flush from Happy Earth! I was very happy with the many different first flush Darjeeling teas that I’ve tried this year. So good.
Sweet notes of fruit and flower. Light and crisp. The fruit is something between apple and peach. A very smooth tasting tea with a mild, dry astringency toward the tail. After a few sips, I started to pick up on hints of vanilla. These tones added a nice, silky experience to the cup.

Good evening Steepster…
I haven’t been feeling too perky today, just down in the dumps I guess. Of course the answer to that problem is to drink a nice cuppa!
I bought a sampler pack from Happy Earth Tea that has all the 2014 FF darjeelings in it. I think I’ll be happy with this decision as I didn’t need more darjeelings but I really wanted to try the current crop.
This tea steeps up with a dark yellow liquor. It definitely has a lot of natural sweetness that comes shining through in the cup. I am getting wonderful fruity flavors and a floral aroma. Their description says peach and vanilla but I was thinking mango too. Hmm, I don’t like this quite as much as the 2012 Risheehat so far, but maybe I will need to experiment a bit with the steeping temp on this one. It is a very nice afternoon tea with a bit of astringency. This was good with a tiny bit of cane sugar and is helping me to feel a bit calmer. :)
Flavors: Flowers, Mango, Peach
