A striking second flush tea from Turzum, made from AV2 cultivar leaves with a high tip-to-leaf ratio and a purplish shine. The long velvet buds transition from slate white to golden ochre. The cup is exceptionally smooth and honeyed, revealing the soft sweetness of Babugosha pear, layered with ripe Alubukhara plum. Floral warmth lingers at the end—reminiscent of Pinwheel blossoms. The coppery golden infusion and delicately bright liquor carry mild aromatics and refined AV2 clarity.
