Rohini (RTE-01) First Pick Jethikupi – Goddess of Spring – First Flush Tea 2024 – Master Series

Limited Edition FTGFOP1 First Pick Jethikupi – First Flush tea 2024 from Rohini Tea Estate is the season’s first produced tea just after the winter season. Rohini is mostly the first garden to produce the first flush teas in Darjeeling. The tea bushes are grown and harvested at an elevation between 1500-3000 feet. The bushes are fresh as they have just come out of an extended period of remaining inactive cause of the prolonged winters of almost about 3 months from the month of November to January. The low temperature experienced during winters has given a very well-defined character to the tea.

This first flush tea 2024 is made from the best quality B-157 clones which is one of the best clones planted in Darjeeling. The dry leaves are bright green in appearance and consist of two whole leaves and a bud. The teas are very mildly oxidized and are delicately processed to induce minimal damage. All oxidation done is overnight and natural with nothing being induced vigorously. This tea is very light on the palette having a very spring fresh and flowery aroma. It has a mouthful fruity flavour that leaves a clean note of olives, peach, and vanilla with a pleasant and distinct aftertaste. You won’t get any green, vegetal taste or any astringencies in this tea.

Рабочие бережно срывают чайные листья, следя за тем, чтобы были сорваны только самые лучшие побеги с выдающимися почками. В этот сезон чай Дарджилинг растет очень медленно, и рабочие смогли привезти лишь очень небольшое количество особенных листьев. Собранные чайные листья такого высокого качества, что чай в основном сортируется вручную с очень небольшим количеством машинного труда.
