Season's Pick Steinthal Estate First Flush TGBOP (2024 DJ-12) Darjeeling

This 2024 first flush Darjeeling offers finely particled leaves, in shades of olive green, which steep a light golden-amber cup with an invigorating fragrance hinting of almond and spice. Notes of tropical fruit and almond, a corn silk sweetness, and a zesty hint of citrus are complemented by the buttery smooth mouthfeel. A dry white wine crispness enlivens the lingering finish. A great value from the renowned Steinthal Estate.
