Nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas, some 6,000 feet above sea level, is the town of Darjeeling and its famous tea estates. Our special rare Darjeeling tea comes from one of the very best tea estates. Darjeeling tea is classically described as having a ‘muscatel’ flavour and what is known in tea tasting terms as ‘pungency’. Darjeeling teas have a distinguished reputation as the ‘champagne of teas’ and are highly regarded for their fine, distinctive flavour. This is because the particular combination of altitude, soil and climate, together with the type of tea bush grown produce a tea with a very distinctive character, reminiscent of champagne.
