Darjeeling Giddapahar Delight Red (black) Tea is an Early FTGFOP 1 (Finest Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe), a classification reserved only for the most precious teas, composed of whole leaves and a generous quantity of buds, the most valuable part of the plant. The dry leaves display many shades of green, which is unusual for a tea classified as black. This occurs because Darjeeling production involves more aggressive withering than other teas, resulting in the loss of almost 60% of the water contained in the leaf. This makes complete oxidation difficult, which is why the leaves, especially those from the first flush, have this color. The color of the liquor in the cup is also not ruby red like that of other Indian black teas, such as Assam or Nilgiri, but remains lighter, shifting toward a golden and amber hue. Giddapahar Delight tea liquor has a light, floral aroma and a delicate character that immediately wins us over, making it the perfect companion throughout the day. Tasting: appearance and aroma Giddapahar Delight black tea has small, rolled leaves, with a blend of colors ranging through military green, forest green and olive green, as well as chestnut and ochre. Many pure white buds covered in soft down are present. Once infused, the leaves release floral and slightly citrusy aromas together with a delicate vegetal note. The liquor is a beautiful transparent amber gold with bright highlights. Tasting notes The first notes of Giddapahar Delight black tea are surprisingly vegetal, reminiscent of sweet vegetables such as baked cardoon, together with a pleasant umami character that opens both sweetly and savory. Floral notes of rose and wildflowers follow, intense without being sharp, fading gently into vanilla-like scents. A delicate citrus character can also be perceived, with notes of citron, as well as a distinctive muscat grape note characteristic of teas from this region. The finish is sweet and floral, with a slight umami hint. The body is dense and incredibly velvety on the palate. A balanced and elegant tea, almost entirely free of astringency and bitter notes, which are completely absent here. Place of origin: Kurseong Valley, Darjeeling district, India Preparation For a classic Western-style preparation of Giddapahar Delight red (black) tea, we recommend 2.5 grams of leaves (about 3 teaspoons) in a 200 ml cup, with water at 85 °C, for an infusion time of two and a half minutes. The tea may be filtered for easier tasting, and the infusion times indicated above are purely suggestions; they can also be adjusted according to personal taste. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
