Gopaldhara Gold (Thor) is one of the best Darjeeling deuxième chasse tea in the Darjeeling hills, made by AV2 bushes. The tea is extremely full and expertly fully oxidized to extract all the flavour. It takes a lot of different processes to oxidize, without crushing and cutting the leaf. Every time you crush and cut the leaf you introduce harshness to the cup. This tea is very clean with absolutely no hints of astringency and harshness. It is honey-sweet with a very well-rounded Muscatel finish and notes of ripe fruits. It has been the best lot in the second flush muscatel category.
Il s’agit de 100% triés sur le volet sans aucune machinerie impliquée. Les ouvriers du jardin sont très prudents lors de leur cueillette pour s'assurer que seules les meilleures pousses avec des bourgeons proéminents sont cueillies. L'élévation supérieure du Gopaldhara Tea Estate, qui s'étend jusqu'à 5 500-7 000 pieds, est plantée d'arbustes AV2 de la meilleure qualité, les clones les plus préférés à Darjeeling.
