Melding winey aromas with sweet, glassy freshness, Darjeeling is splendour with a soft heart. This \u2018Champagne of teas\u2019 is lighter and less bitter than most black teas\u2026 Perfect for a refreshing drink with just enough complexity.<\/p>\n

Logan says\u2026\u201cThis is my go-to when I don\u2019t need the kick of a morning brew. Then I\u2019m chilled for the rest of the day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chinese tea seeds were first planted in Darjeeling in West Bengal, India, in the mid-1800s. Tea bushes soon carpeted the fertile Himalayan hillside, transforming Darjeeling into what it is today: one of the most celebrated tea-growing districts in the world. The gardens hold Protected Geographical Indication, guaranteeing that only tea grown in the region can call itself Darjeeling (another reason it is like Champagne!).<\/p>\n
Skilled farmers grow this exquisite blend in the beautiful Gielle Tea Gardens of West Bengal. The name means \u2018land of sweet water\u2019 in the local Lepcha language and derives from the garden\u2019s soft-flowing waters. The Darjeeling is picked during its second flush, just as the leaves develop a fruity flavour and gorgeous, grape-like profile. Lush!<\/p>\n
The association overseeing Gielle, the Teesta Valley tea gardens, is the oldest tea company in India. It gets our approval because it sounds like Tea-star!<\/p>\n
