Our "everyday" Darjeeling summer tea (second flush) for 2023.
Another great tea from the Organic Okayti Estate of the Mirik Valley on the Nepal/Darjeeling border. Established in the late 19th century, fine tea has been farmed here, from 1200-1900m in altitude, for over 100 years.
Brisk and alive, while rich and full of flavour, hinting at the famed Darjeeling "Muscatel", this is the tea that stood out among the dozens tasted this season.
A great organic tea and value for money.
New for 2023..!!
