Red (black) tea Darjeeling Okayti First Flush is classified as FTGFOP 1 (Finest Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe), a classification given only to the most precious teas, made of whole leaves and a generous amount of buds. It is harvested in the months of March and April, at the beginning of spring, a season whose freshness it recalls with its aromas that are at times almost pungent. Its golden liquor has intense notes of flowers and citrus fruits, with a long-lasting fragrance and a distinctive note of young olive oil. This tea comes from the Kurseong valley, in the Darjeeling district. Place of origin: Kurseong Valley, Darjeeling district, India. Tasting - Sight and smell The black tea Okayti First Flush FTGFOP1 has small whole leaves delicately rolled and is characterized by a good presence of buds. The colors range from light green and olive green to warmer tones of brown and dark brown, up to the silvery tone of the small buds. Even the dry leaf has an intoxicating aroma of flowers and the unmistakable muscat note typical of the best Darjeeling teas. Once infused, the leaves release floral notes, sweet and fruity notes of mango and figs, a fleeting vegetal nuance and a scent reminiscent of green tomato compote. The liquor appears a deep golden color with amber reflections, transparent and bright. On the nose, a citrus note of lemon and verbena can be detected. WESTERN TASTING NOTES The first notes of Okayti First Flush black tea are intense and floral, with hints of wild rose. There is then a touch of young olive oil, fragrant and pungent, which finally gives way to citrus notes of lemon, lemon balm and lemongrass. On the finish, a muscat note emerges, while the floral notes return in persistence. The body is medium-high and velvety. A slight astringency is perceived, typical of first flush Darjeelings, which never becomes unpleasant. Okayti First Flush black tea thus offers the palate remarkable complexity, revealing distinct nuances with every sip and providing a very pleasant sensation of freshness. Preparation For a classic preparation in the Western style of Okayti First Flush black tea, we recommend 2.5 grams of leaves (about 1 teaspoon) in a 200 ml cup with water at 85°C for an infusion time of 2.5 minutes. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
