Emperor’s Choice is a unique Darjeeling finest First Flush Tea from Gopaldhara Tea Estate, located in Mirik, is one of the highest elevated tea gardens in this region & stretches up to 7,000 feet. It is a very Tippy Tea made from AV2 bushes the most preferred clones of Darjeeling. This Darjeeling finest First Flush Tea has a bright, rich, sweet, balanced cup layered with honey sweetness, in the floral range & is balanced by a complex flavor structure. The taste is very clean & refined, simple in a way, but complex in a different sense. There is no astringency in the tea, and the flavor comes across as full with many notes.

The top elevation of Gopaldhara Tea Estates which stretches from 5500 to 7000 FT is planted with the best quality clone AV2. Also, the bushes are fresh as they have just come out of hibernation from the prolonged winter of almost 4 months from December to March. During the first flush, also known as spring flush, we have 100% growing shoots and get excellent buds with either a single leaf or two leaves and a bud. The flavor is prominent as the weather is also very dry and cool which ensures very slow growth. The garden workers are very careful in their plucking by hand to make sure only the best shoots with prominent buds are plucked. Darjeeling First Flush Teas are known to be slightly oxidized. This tea is also made in the same way but it is sufficiently oxidized to ensure that all the exquisite flavors are prominently present.

The plucking is of such fine quality that the tea only needs to be hand sorted and the machines used to make the tea are significantly less. It is a true delight and one of our best Darjeeling First Flush Teas.
