The well balanced flavors and smoothness in the mouth, slightly sweet undernotes and fruitiness make this autumn flash the most readily palatable of all Darjeeling teas. Less floral and delicate than the opening flushes, autumn flavors tend to be more deeply fruity with notes of ripe grapes and berries.

It should taste fruity and creamy. Quantities are limited so try it today!
