Flavor Profile

Darjeeling tea is characterized by its thin-bodied, light-colored infusion that offers a delightful floral aroma. The infusion can also present a musky spiciness, often described as 'muscatel', making it a favorite among tea connoisseurs. Each sip transports you to the lush tea gardens where this remarkable tea is cultivated, allowing you to experience the essence of the region.

History of Darjeeling Tea

The history of Darjeeling tea dates back to 1841 when the British East India Company established tea plantations in the region. The unique climate and altitude of the Darjeeling area contribute to the tea's distinctive quality and flavor, setting it apart from other black teas. Over the years, Darjeeling has gained international acclaim, becoming a staple in tea collections around the world.

Brewing Recommendations

To fully appreciate the delicate flavors of Darjeeling tea, it is recommended to brew it with water that is just below boiling point (around 190°F or 88°C). Steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on your taste preference. This will allow the floral notes and muscatel characteristics to shine through, providing a delightful tea experience.

Health Benefits

In addition to its exquisite flavor, Darjeeling tea offers several health benefits. Rich in antioxidants, it can help combat free radicals in the body.
