Togo drank Runglee Rungliot Estate First Flush Darjeeling SFTGFOP1 by Capital Tea Ltd.

554 tasting notes

Another tea I really liked at the Toronto Tea Festival and was also selling for a really good price. The aromas remind me of magnolia, moth balls, cooked vegetables, okra, rice fields and antique shops. Taste is sweet and grassy with hints of green apple, citrus zest, cardamon and various florals.

It’s not a prime example of a Darjeeling FF, especially now a year after the harvest, but given the price I am very happy with it.

Flavors: Citrus Zest, Floral, Grass, Green Apple, Sour, Sweet, Vegetables

Preparation

200 °F / 93 °C 3 min, 0 sec 4 g 6 OZ / 180 ML

Bio

Currently, I am a PhD student at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Ontario. Apart from teas and mathematics, I enjoy sports and traveling, as well as music of all kinds.

I have been a fan of green tea for a while and only recently (in 2017) started exploring other kinds of tea in greater depth. I rarely drink blends or white tea and avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied. The one thing that I am currently missing in my collection are teas from India, in particular some Darjeelings.
