Collection: First Flush Teas

The first flush tea is the first tea harvested in spring, or even late winter. The exact time of the first flush will depend on the country, tea, area and even tea farmer. However, in many tea producing countries, the first flush is considered the best one, and is often the most expensive one. The term “first flush” usually describes the flavor profile, rather than the exact plucking time. The reason why many tea drinkers are excited about first flush teas is because of their delicacy and freshness.
