Giddapahar Green, Darjeeling

Giddapahar Green, Darjeeling
4 oz. $7.97

This rare green tea steeps up a light golden/green color with a very smooth, slightly sweet, very fresh taste, with no edge or bite at all. It's sort of like a autumnal Darjeeling, except greener and lighter.

Namring Upper Estate, Darjeeling, FTGFOP1, 1st Flush

Namring Upper Estate, Darjeeling, FTGFOP1, 1st Flush
4 oz. $16.95

This is a very bright 1st flush with light delicate hints of fruitiness, briskness, and a lovely fresh-tasting quality. This is one of the earliest 1st flushes of the year.

Orange Valley Estate, Darjeeling, Autumnal, SFTGFOP1

Orange Valley Estate, Darjeeling, Autumnal, SFTGFOP1
4 oz. $10.47

This is one of the smoothest and mellowest Darjeeling black teas I have ever tasted. It has a hint of a sweet summer fruit note to the cup with a fresh meadowy aroma. It has slightly more body than many Darjeeling black teas, but surprisingly doesn't produce the astringency of many Darjeeling teas. A wonderful tea to drink all day long.

Selim Hill Estate, 2nd Flush, FTGFOP1

Selim Hill Estate, 2nd Flush, FTGFOP1
4 oz. $9.97

This lovely 2nd flush Darjeeling black tea steeps up very smooth with good body. Being a Darjeeling 2nd flush it is medium-bodied and produces a liquor with soft notes of a muscatel sweetness, and little or no astringency. This is a great 2nd flush Darjeeling tea for the price.

Sourenee Estate, Darjeeling, FTGFOP1, 1st Flush, ORGANIC

Sourenee Estate, Darjeeling, FTGFOP1, 1st Flush, ORGANIC
4 oz. $19.67

This is a fabulous and unusual first flush Darjeeling black tea. It has a very fresh and beguiling aroma, with hints of blooming flowers. The steeped liquor is very complex: with all the classic notes of a first flush Darjeeling black tea but it also has slight spicy, almost peppery notes. In addition it has very mild astringency compared to many first flush Darjeeling black teas.

Thurbo Estate, Darjeeling, Muscatel, 2nd Flush, FTGFOP1
4 oz. $15.97

This is a very full flavored 2nd flush. It has lots of body and weight for a Darjeeling, and its muscatel notes come through the aroma and cup very prominently. If you like bold 2nd flushes, this is the tea for you.

4 oz. $18.87

This black tea yields a pronounced muscatel aroma in the dry tea leaf and the cup. This black tea steeps up medium to full-bodied (heavy for a Darjeeling tea), very smooth, with hints of ripe summer fruit, balanced by a very slight brisk note.

Glenburn Estate, 1st Flush, FTGFOP1, Lot DJ-36
4 oz. $14.94

What a great 1st flush Darjeeling tea! The steeped cup is medium-bodied, very floral, with fresh ripe notes to the flavor, which nicely contrast the light astringency that 1st flush Darjeelings are known for.

The dry leaf of this 1st flush Darjeeling black tea is wonderfully aromatic. The cup is light to medium-bodied. This is one of those great 1st flushes with layers of aroma and flavor: fresh, herbaceous, melony, fruity, hint of tartness, and a slight taste of the sea.
