Top tea from the small mountain state Sikkim located between India and Bhutan.
The teas from Sikkim greatly resemble the Darjeeling teas, but they are sweeter and contain more top leaves compared to most Darjeeling teas.
This Sikkim has a very elegant and soft flavour. This tea is rare and is therefore only available in limited quantities.
Recommended preparation: 100°C water/6 g. per liter water.
Time: 6 minutes
AC Perch 2025 Advent Day 8: Top Sikkim
Smooth, light-medium bodied, with some floral sweetness at the end of the sip. Another Darjeeling-esque tea. Though the Nilgiri Frost had more sweetness, and also more bitterness to the floral aspects. This one is smoother overall with less robust flavour, but it works nicely.
Lex mentioned she noticed astringency, but generally enjoyed this tea. She gave this a B.
