Giddapahar Special Summer Muscatel Black Tea
A light musky Darjeeling Second Flush with lovely notes of wet wood and a hint of apricots.
description
A journey for your taste buds that begin with a medium-bodied, brisk cup that feels ample in the mouth. The crispness is followed by sweet notes bearing a strong resemblance to apricots which gradually gain prominence and hums along. As you approach the middle oaky flavors take over and mingle with the light floral undertones that add a layer of depth to the liquor. For a grand finish nutty flavors and delightful tones of peach make for a memorable experience.
