Overview
Pairing: breakfast pastries, aged cheese, or dark chocolate

With its invigorating, full-bodied cup, this 2024 Snowview Estate first flush offering exhibits a classic “European style” character. The heady aroma is a rich bouquet of sweet flowers, fresh corn silk, and spring greens. These notes enliven the flavor of the sparkling gold liquor as well. Hints of tropical fruit and apricot linger in the finish, delighting the palate with a refreshing crispness. The perfect accompaniment to a decadent dessert. Cultivating premium teas since 1870, the Snowview Estate coexists with the migratory path of elephant herds, which travel across the estate regularly between the forests in order to drink and bathe in the Moortee river on the lower border of the tea garden. They have recently partnered with Wildlife Friendly Enterprise Network, an independent organization striving to protect elephant populations. In 2020, Snowview Estate became the first tea garden in Darjeeling to be awarded with Elephant Friendly Tea Garden certification.
