The Garden

Perched in Darjeeling where the Rungeet and Rung Dung rivers flow, Glenburn was established in 1859 by a Scottish tea company and is now managed by the Prakash family of Chaiwalas.

Set under the watch of Mt Kanchenjunga, its heirloom China bushes and clonal varieties are hand plucked with meticulous care, embodying both tradition and quiet innovation.

Taste
Lively and elegant, this spring Darjeeling opens with delicate fruity notes that gracefully evolve into a bouquet of fresh rose and orchid, leaving behind a gentle, natural sweetness.

Bright citrus nuances add a refreshing sparkle, while a smooth, silky texture carries through to a clean, lingering finish.

On the second steep, the cup unveils vibrant, raw-fruit accents, equally delightful when enjoyed over ice, offering a refined and uplifting experience.
