Nagri Farm, a former military fort-turned-tea farm, is one of few tea estates in Darjeeling to offer a green tea from their crop, as the district is typically known for its black tea. All the flavors one expects from a Darjeeling tea are present: it’s smooth, deep, rich in flavor, and full of notes of grass, rain, earth, and muscatel grapes, with a creeping astringency the longer it sits in your cup
