Taste
Indulge in the timeless elegance of a first flush Darjeeling white tea. Its refreshing profile bursts with crispness and vitality. Experience a delightful journey of flavors, starting with the invigorating essence of raw tropical fruits, reminiscent of guava in its freshest form. As you sip, hints of cantaloupe interlaced with soft-green accents gently emerge, imparting a soothing touch to the brew.

Towards the finish, delicate floral undertones, evocative of white blossoms, grace your palate, leaving a rejuvenating sensation. A joy to savor this Spring!

Spring In a cup!

This is my 3rd buy and I am not stopping. It’s the right combination of lightness and flavour and aroma - the kind of subtlety I like in my cuppa. Most often it reminds me of the mountains it came from. Keep up the good work team!

Love tea box

Tea box teas are though costly but quality is very good. Enjoy sip by sip slowly.

Beautiful white tea

I brought this when teabox had a sale going on, and I've fallen in love with this white tea. I've tried brewing it both ways, western and gongfu and I've had fun with both. The smoothness and texture of the tea is so well marked with Western brewing. With the gong fu brewing it doesn't do as well as Chinese whites but still can get multiple notes in atleast the first 3 infusions
