What is a Winter Flush tea?

Winter Flush teas are harvested during the coldest period of the year. In Nilgiri, cool nights and slower leaf growth help concentrate aromas and produce teas with exceptional clarity and elegance.

Unlike many strong and tannic black teas, Nilgiri Frost Tea is known for its smooth body, low astringency and highly aromatic profile.
