Margaret's Hope Moonlight Fancy - Darjeeling White Tea Autumn Flush - 2020

Dry: Greyish long leaves with prominent silver tips

Infusion: Very light golden

A very fine tea from the famed Margaret's Hope estate, almost in the centre of the Darjeeling district. Plucked just before daybreak, these tender leaves have been minimally processed to retain the flavour of his fragile offering. This tea with a very mild and desirable 'fire' also has the characteristic moonlight flavour which is clonal, floral and very mellowed. A mild touch of vegetal aroma makes this a complex cuppa to relish and enjoy selectively, this very special early Autumnal.
