The Darjeeling Hillton DJ1 “SFTGFOP1 clonal” that I chose ten days ago has arrived at Roissy airport. It’s one of the very first Darjeelings harvested this year, and this batch of just 95 kilos is worth trying. In the cup, it develops subtle floral notes amidst vegetal aromas of cut grass, raw vegetables and stems. A bouquet of fresh almond, vanilla and yellow fruit accompanies a delightful finish in the mouth, with vegetal, camphor, fresh and vanilla notes.
The first flush Darjeelings have started to arrive
26 March 2013
I agree with most statements made here. The ability to understand The first flush Darjeelings have started to arrive in this market will show your strength in the future. Two things I like about the post, one it is straight forward and two it does not attempt to promote anyone’s position particularly. Well put François-Xavier.
