This one starts off somewhat brusque and uninteresting, perhaps a bit too dark and heavy for my taste. Once the initial flavor fades into a delicate malt the floral nuances are allowed to develop and linger into a deliciously spiced and subtly fruity aftertaste.
I don’t know the precise geographic location of the Singtom estate but perhaps it is in a lower elevation or in a warmer area relative to other Darjeeling estates.
