Sikkim FTGFOP1 Temi Second Flush

Sikkim FTGFOP1 Temi Second Flush is a remarkable black tea that originated in the Temi Tea Estate. This tea plantation is located in the scenic Sikkim region of northeastern India, at the foot of the majestic Himalayas. Established in 1969, the Temi Tea Estate extends over 440 acres and is known for its sustainable farming practices and the production of high-quality tea.

The abbreviation FTGFOP1 stands for "Finest Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe 1". This classification indicates the quality of the tea leaves and indicates that it is an excellent quality tea with many young leaves and buds (tips). The term "Golden" refers to the golden color of the young buds, while "Flowery Orange Pekoe" indicates that it is a tea with a floral and slightly citrus character.

The term "Second Flush" refers to the harvest period of the tea leaves. Tea plantations usually have different harvest periods (flushes), with each period having its own unique taste characteristics. The Second Flush takes place in late spring and early summer and is known for producing tea with a rich and full aroma. The Sikkim FTGFOP1 Temi Second Flush takes advantage of this harvest period and derives its distinctive flavor profile from it.

Thanks to the unique location of the Temi Tea Estate, where the tea plants are surrounded by untouched nature and fertile soil, the tea leaves develop a special taste palette. This results in a tea that stands out for its delicate floral and sweet notes, which work well in combination with the rich, complex taste of black tea.

Sikkim FTGFOP1 Temi Second Flush is a perfect choice for tea lovers looking for a refined and high-quality black tea with its own unique character. Taste the special taste of this tea yourself and let yourself be transported to the enchanting world of the Temi Tea Estate in beautiful Sikkim.
