Rohini Darjeeling First Flush Tea 2025 is unique due to its origin from young Japanese tea bushes with low tannin, grown under natural shade helping chlorophyll retention, and its meticulous processing steps including resting and steaming that create a rare umami-rich flavor absent of astringency.
The Japanese bush variety has lower tannin content and is shade-grown, which preserves chlorophyll and produces a smooth, vegetal, and umami flavor with a subtle sweetness and no bitterness, distinguishing it from typical Darjeeling green teas.
Yes, Rohini Darjeeling First Flush Tea 2025 can be supplied in bulk packaging tailored to B2B requirements, making it suitable for tea retailers, specialty shops, and tea manufacturers.
To experience the smooth umami taste and bright green liquor, it is recommended to brew the tea with water heated to about 75-80°C (167-176°F) for 2-3 minutes, avoiding over-steeping to maintain the delicate flavor balance.
The resting process allows enzymatic activities that develop complex flavor compounds and reduce harshness, contributing to the tea's smooth and rich umami profile.
Country Of Origin: India
This special and rare Darjeeling Green Tea is from the Rohini Tea Estate, one of the youngest tea gardens in Darjeeling. It is made during the spring season, from special Japanese bushes that have less tannin content in them. The bushes are covered with thick natural shades which help the leaves retain chlorophyll and give them a unique taste. After careful plucking, the whole tea leaves are allowed to rest so that they develop some flavour. This is followed by steaming, drying, and lightly rolling the tea.
The whole tea leaves appear dark green in colour and contain several buds. This rare Darjeeling green tea brews into a bright green cup that is rich and smooth on the palate with a tinge of sweetness and no astringency. It has vegetal and umami flavour with a hint of pine and a lingering aftertaste.
For many years there were four basic taste groups i.e. sweet, sour, bitter, and salty. ‘Umami’, or the fifth taste, has been a recent discovery. Umami is a Japanese word that means “pleasant savory taste”. It is a very common flavour and we’ve all tasted it without really noticing it. Some of our foods that have the umami taste are tomatoes, mushrooms, seaweed, soy sauce, and parmesan cheese.
