First Flush Darjeeling is quite rare and highly sought after. The first sprouting of tea leaves on the Camellia Sinensis plant, known as a “flush,” marks the start of the season. Because this flush is the first batch the tea plant produces after winter dormancy, it has an incredibly unique flavor profile. First Flush teas are more delicate, aromatic, and resemble green teas in their dry and brewed states. This First Flush Darjeeling tea was deliberately harvested, withered, roasted, and sorted exclusively for Art of Tea and is available in a limited release while supplies last.

Sophia ★★★★★

The moment the leaves hit the water, the aroma filled my kitchen — this batch is unmistakably fresh. The rarity of a first flush is real; it's delicate, light, and worth every penny for that spring awakening in a cup.

Ella U. ★★★★★

The first flush is the only time I'll pay this much for tea, and it doesn't disappoint. You can really taste that early sprouting of the leaves—it's delicate and nothing like the later harvests. Already on my second order this season.
