Darjeeling Tea

What's more enchanting than the tea gardens of Darjeeling set against the backdrop of the Himalayas? The tea of Darjeeling!

Organic Darjeeling Tea

Producing one of the oldest teas in India, the small town of Darjeeling is known for its rich history and the cultivation of one of the most highly demanded teas in the world—Darjeeling tea.

Darjeeling Tea : Seasons & Flavours

Grown from the Chinese plant Camellia sinensis, Darjeeling tea has a lighter shade than most black teas. Like every other plant, Darjeeling tea goes through periods of growth and dormancy when new leaves are formed and harvested. It's incredible how the same tea bush in Darjeeling tea plantations gives four variants over the harvest seasons. These periodic harvests are known as flushes, and they have different flavours. The distinctive taste of this tea is what makes it unique. It's delicately hand-rolled and oxidised to bring out prime flush tea leaves' best flavour and aroma.

Types of Darjeeling Tea

Every tea connoisseur knows Darjeeling tea and its varieties, such as white tea, black tea, oolong tea and green tea.

Darjeeling Black Tea

Black tea is the traditional form of organic Darjeeling tea. It goes through several processes: withering, rolling, fermenting and sorting. It has a dark colour and includes sweet, floral, earthy, muscatel flavours. Taste the premium black tea from 1868 for that malty-sweet flavour.

Darjeeling Green Tea

Rich in antioxidants, green tea goes through drying and steaming but not fermenting. This allows the tea to retain its natural constituents. As the name suggests, Darjeeling green tea is green in colour and turns bitter the longer it is infused in water. These are also called the first flush Darjeeling tea, usually consumed without milk. Explore a range of premium green tea from 1868 by Tata Tea.

Darjeeling Oolong Tea

Oolong tea is a semi-oxidised tea that falls between Darjeeling green tea and black tea. It offers a fruity aroma and appears to be dark orange upon infusion.

Darjeeling White Tea

The Darjeeling white tea is the most delicate of all tea types. It's made by sun-drying and hand-rolling only. This way, the tea retains its natural flavour and constituents. Darjeeling white tea turns pale golden after infusion and has a hint of sweetness.
