Harvested in the second picking of the year, Alaya Darjeeling Second Flush tea leaves are more full-bodied than its First Flush counterpart. Yet they still retain that quintessential floral taste unique to Darjeeling tea, which comes from the unique terroir of this Himalayan region. Darjeeling teas are not as robust as those from Assam, which are typically used for masala chai. Also great iced, with a slice of orange.
