Darjeeling Tea

About

Darjeeling tea is grown high in the Himalayan foothills of India, where cool air, misty mornings, and dramatic elevation shape some of the most distinctive teas in the world. Often called the Champagne of teas, Darjeelings are prized for their clarity, layered aroma, and signature muscatel character that can only come from this region. These teas are harvested in short seasonal windows, with each flush expressing something different. First flush teas are light and floral. Second flush teas are fuller, warmer, and known for their coveted muscatel notes. Because harvests are limited and quality varies dramatically from lot to lot, careful sourcing makes all the difference. We source only exceptional estate teas from respected gardens, selecting lots that show balance, depth, and a clear sense of place. Every Darjeeling we carry is chosen for its craftsmanship and cup quality. What you’ll find here may change with the seasons, but the standard never does.
