Simplest Explanation of Darjeeling Black Tea and its Four Flushes
Darjeeling Tea Bushes are unique. They yield Four Harvests with a short resting period between any two harvests. The tea leaves are harvested four times a year and according to the time of harvest, the names and flavour profiles change. The Four Flushes of Darjeeling Tea are - First Flush, Second Flush, Monsoon or Roasted Flush and Autumn Flush.
