Our long awaited Makaibari 1st flush is here! This is the first air freight lot of this year and we are starting with DJ 18/08. This is the 18th production (or lot or ‘invoice’) of the year. It is a fine china tea with a pronounced green hue to the leaf and a wonderful, fresh, floral light cup. The stencil on the chest speaks volumes. It tells us that 5 chests of DJ 18 were manufactured, Grade FTGFOP1S (Finest Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe), each chest 22 kgs. nett (48.4 lbs.) with a gross weight of 26 kgs. Our entire warehouse now carries the fragrance of Makaibari.

Silver Tips – I’ve just completed my first leisurely cup of the new Makaibari First Flush (DJ 18/08) and it is, simply, sublime. I am always amazed at the renewal of my taste buds when a new tea arrives and never more so than with each year’s new first flush. Thank you for bringing this amazing tea to my doorstep. – Walter -
Thanks, Walter. I agree completely. I’ve been savoring every sip from every cup.
