Rohini (RTE-65) Summer Wild Bai Mudan – Second Flush White Tea 2023 – Master Series
₹ 400.00 / 25 gms tin caddy
Summer Bai Mudan is an extraordinary and elusive Darjeeling white tea derived from the revered Rohini Tea Estate. Cultivated from a rare and yet-to-be-classified wild clone known locally as Bhime, the true origin of this exceptional clone remains a mystery. Discovered at the highest elevation of the estate when we acquired it, its uniqueness adds to its allure.
Crafted using a natural process, devoid of machinery, this tea undergoes sun-drying and delicate manufacturing methods instead of rolling and induced oxidation. These meticulous techniques ensure that the white tea maintains its smooth and creamy texture. The dry leaves of this distinctive white tea exhibit an open appearance with abundant silver tips, infusing into a delicate light yellow liquor.
Summer Bai Mudan boasts a remarkable taste profile, characterized by a refreshing and mineral quality, reminiscent of the untamed wilderness. It presents notes of bell pepper, culminating in a finish with hints of Indian gooseberry. For those seeking an extraordinary experience with Darjeeling teas, this exceptional offering is an absolute must-have.
