Tasting Notes

From our Chief Tea Taster
Submit
Aroma
Warm and inviting; with notes of stone-fruits with notes of honeyed nuts and hints of dried figs
Appearance
Orange Amber
Taste
A medium-bodied cup with a gentle, velvety texture. It opens with a delightful register of stone-fruit notes that gradually evolve into warm nutty accents at the heart. Subtle musky undertones weave through the edges, layered with hints of caramel that add depth and a rounded feel to the liquor.

The finish is smooth and refined, leaving a lingering sweetness and faint whispers of spice—an exquisite autumnal black tea from this renowned plantation.

Bummed it's currently sold out!

This was one of my most favorite teas in the black sampler box. Went to order it on its own but dang! It's sold out - so i guess others agreed too. Very good tea, more subtle and gentle than some of the other bold black teas in the sampler box, which i also loved, bc it's nice to have any array of go-to flavour styles. Hoping for more Giddapahar Autumn tea next year - i appreciate it's out tho bc you know you are getting everything fresh

Wonderful flavor and aroma

This tea exhibits all characteristics of a wonderful Darjeeling Autumn tea. It is has a perfect flowery aroma, fruity flavor and strength. It goes well with a bit of sugar. A dash of milk brings out the flavor even better, but like most Darjeeling teas, don't add too much of it.
