Overview
Perched at elevations ranging 5,400 to 7,000 feet in the Nilgiri Hills of southern India, the Glendale Estate offers this distinctive black tea with long, twisted leaves that steep a beautiful amber liquor. The light toasty aroma is fragrant with hints of almond and oak, complemented by a sweet smoky whisper. The bright, lively cup refreshes with notes of stone fruit, citrus, and almond. Hints of spice bring a bittersweet nuance to the lingering finish.
