This superior Darjeeling from the renowned Makaibari Estate speaks of the pristine environment in which it was cultivated. Grown at 5,000 ft. in the mist-covered foothills of the Himalayan Mountain Range, it boasts a beautiful dark amber cup color. In leaf appearance, it is similar to last year's harvest as it is also interspersed with silvery unopened leaf buds. These buds enhance the sweet, fruity, muscatel notes with complex character in both the cup aroma and taste. The Makaibari Estate is the world’s oldest single-owner tea estate. Cradled in the lap of the majestic Himalayan Mountains, the Estate maintains the holistic practices of bio-dynamics and permaculture.
