Darjeeling Second Flush
Darjeeling Second Flush
Darjeeling is a land of rolling foothills set against a backdrop of snow-capped Himalayan peaks. Grown at high altitude, our Darjeeling Second Flush encapsulates the best of the region's summer picking season, when the hot weather creates the perfect conditions for making stronger black teas. Combining complex and comforting aromatic scents, this prestigious expression of Darjeeling terroir is deeply refreshing with a satisfyingly thick flavour.

- Delicious!One of the finest second flush darjeelings I have ever tasted!
- Exactly what I expected after tasting it in a Jordan hôtelSubtle as a Darjeeling should be. However, I do not boil the water for such a tea. Keep it at 90 °. I have a kettle setting temperatures. Absolutely delicious.
- A great all rounderSubtle yet assertive. Aromatic. Both warming AND refeshing. One of the most balanced and satisfactory 2nd flush Darjeelings you can find online.
