The Second Flush in Darjeeling produces mature, more rounded flavours than the First Flush. The cup is a clear amber, yet full-bodied with an excellent flowery nose. In taste it has a complex layer of maltiness with musk and nutty, cocoa undertones. Plucked in the early summer months of May and June, this stylishly rolled leaf is made from select shoots that draw their succulence from the late spring showers. Glenburn Second Flush Darjeeling has a special character, owing to the clonal plants selected to thrive in our unique Glenburn growing conditions. 100g loose tea in an elegant Glenburn Gift Tin.

Origin
Glenburn Tea Estate, Darjeeling A place where the magnificent peaks of the 3rd highest mountain in the world, Mount Kanchenjunga ascend over the tea bushes of Glenburn, - a name that literally means what this 750 hectare estate is - A River Valley. Here in hills of Darjeeling, tea rises out of the magical landscape imbibing the essence of the eternal Himalayas. In the peace and tranquility of Glenburn a flourishing community of people and tea bushes thrive together as they have done for the past 150 years.
