This tea is from the Puttabong Estate, also known as Tukvar. Established in 1852, this was the first tea estate in Darjeeling. The tea estate stretches from an altitude of 1,500 ft to 6,500 ft just above the Rangeet river, which forms the border to Sikkim. When infused, the saddle brown leaves give off a pleasing aroma of fruit and wintergreen. The flavor is rich and balanced with fruit notes that linger in the finish.
