We are honored to present you the carefully picked, renowned Second Flush Darjeeling Tea selection 2007 - have a look below. We would like to say that we nearly burnt our lips sipping in the teas poured on those hot china clays. Well, again cooled down while sipping in the lukewarm liqors. Just a small tip - teas are graded by both their quality while the liqor is hot and when it has cooled down - some teas get a prominent character while it cools.

Enlarge Photo   Post n View Review	CASTLETON MUSCATEL DARJEELING TEA - 2007 Castleton as a garden is renowned for its second flush teas especially the muscatel line of DJs. But one should not be convinced that all teas from Castleton are equally good and are of the same quality. Among the muscatels too there is a wide difference in appearance and character resulting in a good or a bad muscatel variety. The line (invoice) we picked up is one of the best among 5 muscatel varieties that were shown to us along with other china grades. Mr. DB Gurung (Castleton main tea maker) had taken the sample to the tea tasting session held by J. Thomas (Auction holder) here in Darjeeling, and guess what, J. Thomas tasters suggested Mr. Gurung to make teas on the lines of the sample he brought for tasting. He was very happy and called Benoy to give the good news. We were happy with our tea tasting because the teas we bought were appreciated by renowned tea tasters from J. Thomas. The dry leaves have a blackish appearance with a mix of brown leaves with some amount of tips (silver and golden buds). The dry leaves have a particular shine depicting high quality. Give a gentle blow with your breath on the dry leaves and smell it – our nose caught lemony, malty and muscatel notes. The infused leaves had a beautiful fruity note of grapes resembling muscatel that is somewhat lemony also. The liqor is full bodied and smooth – its chocolaty or rather malty, lemony and the muscatel character can be found jumping on tongue tips and deep within. A real Darjeeling character oriented tea from Castleton. Darjeeling is famous because of its muscatel character and this is one which boasts of having it – its prominent. - US$ 13.90 ALL SOLD

Owned by Jay Shree Tea & Industries limited, it is under Bio-Organic conversion, meaning all teas from Puttabong will be organic. This year we purchased some First Flush teas from Puttabong and it proved to be one of the best. I would like to tag Puttabong specially as a First Flush tea garden, but not to forget their yearlong production. We visited Puttabong and met both Mr. Somani (Superintendent) and Mr. Parekh (Manager). This time we were looking for a good value for money tea and after tasting a line of clonals and chinas, we got one for you. A marvelous tea in comparison to its pricing and quality. To start off with the dry leaves, its buttery and nutty reminiscent of groundnut. It has blackish-brownish with a very slight mixture of green appearance. The infused leaves bear lemony notes. The liqor has a full cup or is full bodied and the taste is sweet with a slight lemony character. It has a slight slippery buttery character. It’s a tea made from pure organic china bushes resulting in a good yield having the orthodox Darjeeling character. It’s a tea which everyone can afford and enjoy! - US$ 5.98

It produces very good teas and the Japanese tea connoisseurs seem to be its great fan. The surprising thing is, there is no proper road directly linked to Jungpana and only through the half way one can ply by a vehicle. The other half has to be traversed on foot. Teas from Jungpana are carried by individual garden porters on a basis of 1-3 chests on their back. Amazing isn’t it? Well we too had to walk to get this tea for you and now since its with us, it’s out in the open for you to buy. The dry leaves are brownish having lemony and sweet notes. Its well twisted and elongated meaning properly rolled. The infused leaves too bear sweet and fruity notes with a coppery infusion. The liqor is full bodied as all Second Flush teas should be and has a sweet honey toned cup with a slight hint of buttery effects. A china grade tea from Jungpana which is excellent and worth a try. Most of the teas from Jungpana are china graded. Its reasonably priced too. Give it a try. - US$ 6.20

It’s a high elevation garden situated in the vicinity of Orange Valley Tea Estate and the famous tourist spot known as Gangamaya and Rock Garden. We normally don’t go for clonals during the Second Flush, but this tea was exceptional and we had to go for it. Only true and authentic other tea vendors have recognized its quality and have bought it. Mr. Jha, Superintendent of Risheehat, Sungma and Balasun sent us this sample. The first sample he sent had a slight weaker body, but the next lot was just perfect and we couldn’t just avoid this marvelous tea. The dry leaves are larger than the rest of the teas we have procured and as the name suggests, its highly flowery with a very slight roasty character. The infused leaves are coppery and opens up to its full size. It’s has a mixture of lemony, malty and minty notes. The cup is full bodied which is smooth and fills your mouth full with a sweet honey toned taste. Its lemony to a certain extent and leaves the mouth with a sweet lingering after taste. A overall delightful tea! - US$ 11.98
Enlarge Photo   Post n View Review	THURBO MUSCAT DARJEELING TEA - 2007 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. This is one tea we have our eyes on and think it will be appreciated by all tea connoisseurs. Thurbo has always produced excellent teas, but less known to tea connoisseurs, may be due to lack of consciousness and proper marketing. A pure china graded tea with elongated wiry dry leaves having chocolaty, malty and fruity notes more inclined towards the sweet smell of plum. It’s got a coppery infusion slightly minty and lemony. The cup is full-bodied with a sweet-sugary taste having buttery and malty taste. On the lines of Castleton Muscatel, it has some muscatel character which is invigorating. A quality tea from Thurbo. - US$ 8.98

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 'value for money' second flush tea from Thurbo. Its amazing to know why the tea garden sold us the tea for such a low price. Maybe due to their mass production which made them overlook this particular tea. Thurbo produces very good clonal teas, particularly the famous one is 'Tippy Clonal', but this second flush tea being a china grade is greatly under-rated according to its beautiful character both as a leaf and in the cup. Full bodied with excellent muscatel notes encircle it's character. Has a marvelous fruity and nutty aftertaste. Your best bet if you are looking for a quality tea at a fair budget. - US$ 5.98 - US$ 4.19 SOLD OUT!!

This tea is fairly priced, but not to be taken as a secondary grade. Each tea has a uniqueness of its own and unlike the muscatel delight, this tea has its own characteristics and beauty. Slightly smaller dry leaves than the muscatel delight, this tea is a well rounded cup with almondy and fruity nose. Muscatel flavored with a lovely floral bouquet that is lingering in mouth. Only you can be the best judge for this tea - All we can say is that its worth the money you buy for. - US$ 5.90 - US$ 4.13 SOLD OUT!
