Key characteristics of Darjeeling tea:

  • Distinct flavour: Darjeeling tea is known for its light, delicate taste with hints of muscatel, a wine-like quality often compared to grapes, combined with floral, fruity, or nutty undertones.
  • Seasonal variety: The tea is harvested in three primary flushes (seasons). The first flush (spring) offers a bright, floral flavor, the second flush (summer) is more full-bodied with stronger muscatel notes, and the autumn flush has a mellow, rounded taste.
  • Fine aroma: Darjeeling tea has a fragrant, complex aroma, often described as a combination of sweet, fruity, and floral notes, with a subtle astringency.
  • High altitude growth: The unique terroir, including the high altitude and misty climate of Darjeeling, contributes to its distinctive character.

Although traditionally produced as black tea, Darjeeling can also be found as green, white, or oolong tea. Its delicate nature means it is best enjoyed without milk, allowing its nuanced flavours to shine.
