Second Flush

Second Flush is the black tea harvested in May to June, known for its summer picking. The tea leaves, nurtured by sunlight, are rich in compounds, resulting in a well-balanced flavor, aroma, and body that is considered the best of the year.

The Second Flush from Darjeeling is globally renowned for its sweet and rich 'muscatel flavor.' This aroma is believed to be linked to the tea plant's response to the feeding of leafhoppers, but it emerges from a combination of factors including cultivar and processing methods.
