GOPALDHARA DARJEELING ROSETTES

 Tea flowers, with their aromatic scent, their sensual unfolding upon infusion, have stirred both the refined and decadent passions of nobility for generations. The tea party in Sophia Coppola’s “Marie Antoinette” evokes the Queen’s deeply held belief that “perfume is the fragrance of the soul.”

With a delicate floral aroma that sweetens and intensifies with each additional infusion, with rosettes that blossom into a delicate ring of leaves, these hand-made rosettes of Darjeeling silver-green leaves still remain the queen of tea parties honoring the fragrance of the soul.
