We have carefully sourced our collection of the very best Darjeeling loose leaf teas from the finest tea growing plantations across the Darjeeling region in West Bengal, India. Known as the ‘Champagne of tea’, Darjeeling has commercially produced superb quality black teas since 1856 and we are proud to stock several teas from estates that can trace their roots back to those very earliest tea gardens. Darjeeling loose leaf teas make a famously good afternoon cuppa owing to their low malt and bitter characteristics.
