Overview
Pairing: breakfast pastries, aged cheese, or dark chocolate
With its fresh herbaceous aroma hinting of tropical fruit with mineral undertones, this superb 2024 first flush Darjeeling from Balasun Estate invites you to take that first sip. The golden amber cup is buttery smooth, filling the palate with classic floral notes that are enhanced by hints of honey and corn silk. A burst of tropical fruit sweetness lingers in the crisp, polished finish.
