The best time of year for a quality Darjeeling is "second flush", or end of May to end of June. During this time, Darjeelings are not comparable to any other tea - the fragrance and taste are a complex bouquet of flavors, from nutty, to a blackcurrant-like taste, but most often, it is described as similar to the taste and smell of muscat grapes. This tea delivers a bright liquor, with a full round taste of muscatel. Organic Darjeeling delivers a superb afternoon tea. Available in 2 sizes:
Contents loose leaf tea net weight 4oz
Contents loose leaf tea net weight 16oz (1 lb)
This tea is certified USDA and QMI Organic. For the best brew, Organic Darjeeling should steep in water that has been brought to a rolling boil for 2-5 minutes.
