The Queen of Rangeet is a 2021 first flush Darjeeling black tea from the renowned Rangeet Valley Tea Estate in India. It is celebrated for its balanced taste, offering floral and fruity notes with a fresh mineral edge. The tea is made from the highest quality leaves, picked by hand during the first flush, which is the first harvest of the season.
The tea has a beautifully complex aroma, with hints of exotic flowers, Muscat grapes, fresh herbs, and candy. The liquor is orange-gold, and the taste is mellow with candied peel and a soft sweetness in the finish. The first flush characteristics give it a delicate yet vibrant profile, showcasing the bright, crisp flavors that Darjeeling teas are known for.
Galerie Du Thé specializes in high-quality loose-leaf teas, including black, green, oolong, matcha, and white tea. Their selection is curated to provide an exceptional tasting experience, with a focus on freshness, craftsmanship, and small-batch production.
