Darjeeling Tea

Our organic Darjeeling tea is an Autumnal flush from a richly biodiverse and naturally forested tea garden in the steep mountains of Northern India. This tea is favored for its indulgent flavor and complex characteristics. The name Darjeeling means Land of the Thunderbolt, which originates from the Tibetan words Dorje, meaning thunderbolt, and Ling, meaning place or land. The first commercial tea plantations in Darjeeling were established in the 1850s, as the tea plants flourished in the local ecosystem. Contains caffeine. Origin: India Aroma and Flavor An earthy and floral aroma complements the full-bodied flavor. Notes of fruit and a mild astringency brews a delicious cup alone, however, a little sugar or honey helps bring out the sweeter flavors.
