The Autumn
Flush teas differ a lot from the First and
Second flush teas and has a charm of its
own. If you have been avoiding Autumn Flush
Darjeeling teas then you have been avoiding
the entirety of what Darjeeling tea is about.
Production of Autumnal teas was scaled down
to a minimum, but not to worry, we have
procured a few and the best reasonable teas
which are good in quality and affordable.
Most of the tea vendors hardly focus on
Autumnal teas, but to us, its one of our
favorite. Just 'choose, pick and savour'.

THURBO FTGFOP1
(CH) |
Owned by the Goodricke
Group of Companies, Thurbo Tea
Garden is known for its quality
production of Darjeeling Teas. The
name of the garden owes its origin
to a historic event when the British
set up their camp at the estate to
invade Nepal. The word 'Camp' is referred
to as "Tombu" in Nepali
language and this particular Nepalese
word may have developed into 'Thurbo'
later.
A little stronger than the above teas,
this full bodied tea from Thurbo is
flowery and nutty in character which
is slightly orangey in taste. The
infused leaves are aromatic with a
sweet smelling floral bouquet. This
can be called a 'strong Darjeeling
tea' but smooth in the tongue and
the aftertaste lingers in the mouth.
Slightly tangy which reveals the unusual
muscat character found in second flush
teas. Can add milk, but not recommended.
