Darjeeling Giddapahar Spring Chinary Black
Perched in the scenic Kurseong valley at elevations between 4,500 and 5,200 feet, Giddapahar Tea Estate has been crafting fine teas since 1881. Generations of the Shaw family have nurtured this historic garden, renowned for its traditional Chinary black teas. Named ‘Eagle’s Mountain,’ its mist-laden slopes offer the perfect terroir for teas of remarkable depth and character.
While Giddapahar’s legacy lies in its century-old China bushes, the estate has thoughtfully introduced young clonal cultivars over the years—infusing innovation into tradition.
This season’s Chinary black tea is a pure expression of Giddapahar’s legacy—crafted from heritage bushes that thrive on its misty slopes. The cup is bright and brisk, with citrusy liveliness, gentle fruit sweetness, and a crisp, lingering finish. A timeless Darjeeling spring in every sip.
