Darjeeling Tea
Darjeeling tea has often been called the “champagne of tea,” and has traditionally been prized in the United Kingdom above all other black teas. Darjeeling tea is grown only in the Darjeeling region of West Bengal, India. It has traditionally been made only into black teas, but in recent years more Darjeeling oolongs and Darjeeling whites have been entering the market. Even traditional Darjeeling black tea is usually oxidized less than most other black teas, giving it a taste and body more similar to traditional oolong.

Thunderbolt Tea Arya Pearl 2009 Autumn Flush
9.5/10 — 1 review  |
Lynn's review: "it is totally handcrafted, with absolutely no machines involved. Hand picked, it is laid out to dry in the sun for six to eight hours, and that's it. The result is a lovely sight to behold; whole leaves and bud clusters gently curled and still a light emerald green, as if they'd been plucked from the tea bush only a few hours ago.

7/10 | |
|
Lynn's review: "The flavor was on the light side, as well, although it definitely possessed some of the Darjeeling astringent sharpness, primarily on the front of the tongue, not much down the sides.

6.0/10 | |
|
Jamie's review: "My mind and senses both are really engaged by this tea, trying to place and discern the tastes and scents. The tea is quite flowery, almost like a perfume, but completely lacking in any cloying, oily component. The floral quality isn't strictly flowery. You won't sip this and think, "oh, it's a jasmine" or "oh, it's a rose." Instead, the floral sense is more diffuse than that. " Read review » |

Vanessa's review: "Tastewise, this is a very complex tea which requires some concentration; this tea is probably best suited to an alert and focused drinker. Flavors of fruit, flowers, butter, nuts, mint, and grass/earth were all present. However the problem with this tea was that it was extremely bitter, as in bitter enough to negate many of the positive attributes. " Read review » |
