A Darjeeling loose leaf tea sampler: first flush and second flush side by side in 20g pouches, plus a jasmine green as a lighter third. Tasting the two flushes against each other in the same week is the fastest way to understand what Darjeeling actually means.
What is inside:
The two Darjeelings are GI tagged. The Jasmine Green is a scented green tea and carries no GI tag, as no scented tea does. All three are whole leaf and free of artificial additives. This set is ideal for tea connoisseurs, gifting to tea lovers, or anyone wanting to understand the difference between Darjeeling's two famous harvests.
How to Brew: First & Second Flush: 1 tsp per 200ml at 85 to 95°C, 3 to 4 min, black. Jasmine: 1 tsp per 200ml at 75 to 80°C, 2 to 3 min, black.
Origin: GI tagged Darjeeling estates for both flushes. Indian estates for the jasmine base.
Grade: Whole leaf, 20g each.
Packed: Bangur Avenue, Kolkata, in food grade resealable pouches. Available in one 3 x 20g set.
Licensing: FSSAI licensed.

Four steps
One heaped teaspoon to 200 ml. Weigh it once and you will never guess again.
Let the kettle settle off the boil. Water that is too hot scalds the leaf.
Use a timer. Guessing is how a good leaf turns bitter.
Whole leaf carries a second infusion. Add thirty seconds to the steep.

Also from the hills




Provenance
River silt and ninety percent humidity. Golden tips, malt-forward, built for a strong morning cup.
Picked in cloud. Slow growth, tight silver tips, and the wildflower lift only altitude produces.
The muscatel band. Warmer than the ridge, cooler than the plain — stone fruit and a rounded finish.
