Delicate yet complex, Nepali Spring Flush Black Tea offers a bright, aromatic cup with the elegance of a first flush Darjeeling. Grown at high elevation and harvested early in the season, this tea showcases layered notes of white flowers, honeyed corn, and spring greens, with a subtle woody depth. A moderate astringency adds structure, while the finish lingers with floral sweetness and soft minerality. This is a beautiful option for both black tea and oolong lovers looking for something floral, light, and invigorating.
