Spring Chinary Black Tea is crafted from the Camellia sinensis var. sinensis plant, commonly known as the Chinary tea bush. After a winter dormancy from December to February, the young spring leaves—rich in sap—are harvested between March and May, giving the tea its signature freshness and layered complexity.

This isn’t a single-origin tea but a carefully crafted blend of select teas from 4–5 Darjeeling estates. Our master tasters blend with precision to achieve a balanced, signature profile — offering a cup that reflects the region’s character in a distinctive way.

This tea is crafted from heritage Chinary bushes, offering a distinctly fresh and lively cup with delicate floral and fruity notes. Its spring harvest ensures a bright, crisp character that sets it apart from later seasonal flushes.

Spring flush teas are the first harvest after the plant's winter dormancy, making them highly prized for their freshness, complexity, and delicate flavors. The tender leaves are rich in natural sap, resulting in a refined and aromatic cup.
