From Teabox

Our maiden offering from Selim Hill plantation of Darjeeling, this green tea is exceptional for its bright flavors. Look for persistent notes of cornflower across the flavor profile of this tea. The palate notes are distinctly floral with a touch of astringency trailing through it all. Enjoy a cup of this medium caffeine tea at all hours of the day.

I found this tea to be quite astringent and dry. It had notes of tomatoes, tomato leaves and bitter greens, amost an arugula taste, but without any pepper. A departure from the gently savory or buttery green teas that I enjoy.

Surprisingly fruity-sweet, somewhat floral aroma. A darker, reddish hay color. The taste is bright and floral (not sweet, though, despite the smell), with a hay/corn taste and borderline dry flavor due to the mild astringency, which is prominent in the mouth after swallowing. A decent, full bodied tea, but no real prominent flavors or aspects, which I found boring.
