Namring Tea Estate was established in 1855 high on the mountain slopes of Darjeeling. Darjeeling First Flush teas, picked soon after the bushes start to push out their fresh leaf shoots in the early spring, are the finest and most expensive. Typically, the liquors are crisp and fresh and full of floral notes, with hints of exotic fruits and berries.
