Tasting Notes

From our Chief Tea Taster
Submit
Aroma
Fresh-greens with notes of pine, hint of grapes and light nutty nuances
Appearance
Gold
Taste
A medium-bodied, pleasantly brisk cup which starts with a distinct note of sweet-greens and gradually evolves to mingle with distinctive pine-like flavor towards the middle, rendering a muted aromatic totality to the liquor.

Fleeting nutty accents are discernible along the edges, which gradually subside to finish on soft-fruity tinctures, akin to grapes. Ephemeral tones of green figs linger on in the aftertaste, making for a captivating finish.

A mild cup with a fruity note & a hint of citrus.

Very good cup of Spring produce. A hint of citrus and a very light roast flavor makes this cup a truly enjoyable one.
The service of Teabox is exceptional though!!!

A taste extraordinary

I could go out and buy my favourite cuppa. So I took a peek at teabox. On a whim I ordered Castleton black. The ease of payment, prompt delivery and a free gift too. All these made me appreciate the service.
But the taste of the cuppa was amazing. I thank Teabox for curating flavours that please the tea soul in me.
Love Darjeeling.
