Mim 2nd Flush Darjeeling Tea

One of the most highly prized teas to come out of India, Darjeeling tea enjoys exceptional popularity. Mim is grown in the Darjeeling area of Northern India and at such high altitudes, the tea bushes grow slowly and production is limited, thus these teas attract a higher value. Plucked during June when the 2nd flush growing season is at its peak, this Mim tea offers excellent body with the classic muscatel flavour that tastes simply wonderful.
