The Darjeeling region of India yields much gentler tea than Assam–lighter, nutty, with nuances accompanying each ‘flush’ or picking.  As seasons pass, the infusion with each picking becomes bolder and yet retains the essence of why Darjeeling is known as ‘the champagne of tea‘..truly a delicacy even with later flushes, accompanying the perceptible earthiness of Indian teas.  A toasty essence combines to give a lovely finish.  This is an autumnal flush Darjeeling.

Serving Suggestion:   Serve black or with milk & sweetener.

Brewing Instructions:  Use 1 heaping tsp. to 1 tbs. per 8 oz. water, to taste.  Steep 4 minutes at 190-195F

Ingredients: (Autumnal flush) Darjeeling black tea

Toasty to the palate, Popcorn tea, Laborer’s Tea…this tea has a story behind it, as many do. To make tea accessible to the laborer, it was ‘cut’ with roasted brown rice, which sometimes popped into tiny popcorn-like pieces. It became so popular it is now a classic. Now, this is just one version of the story…several others exist.
