Darjeeling Loose Leaf Tea — Second Flush, Muscatel

Whole-leaf second-flush Darjeeling from a single estate, picked in early summer when the leaf develops its famous muscatel note — bright, gently fruity and never bitter when brewed right.

One rounded teaspoon per cup, water just off the boil, three to four minutes. The resealable pouch makes around fifty cups; keep it away from light and strong smells.

• Grower named on the order note, with the date the crop was picked
• Travels between 2 and 5°C in a temperature-logged crate
• No wax, no ripening gas, no post-harvest treatment
