Glenburn Silver Spring – Darjeeling White Tea
Glenburn Silver Spring – Darjeeling White Tea is a rare and delicate white tea crafted at the Glenburn Estate, nestled in the Himalayan foothills of India’s Darjeeling region. Harvested during the first flush of spring, only the youngest buds and tender leaves are carefully hand-plucked and gently sun-dried to preserve their natural character and soft floral notes.
The liquor is pale and luminous, with a smooth mouthfeel and nuanced flavour. Expect notes of white grape, peach skin, and sweet grass, supported by a hint of wildflowers and a clean, lingering finish. This tea is light-bodied yet expressive, offering a serene and refined tasting experience for true connoisseurs.
