John's Notes: For the past few years, the production of Autumn Flush teas has been made especially difficult, due to the unusually long monsoon season. In spite of the shortened season, and the monsoon rains, which raise the moisture content of the leaves, this tea is one of the finest examples of an Autumn Flush tea. A wonderful prize of autumn flush harvest which should not be missed by a tea lover!
