DARJEELING TEA
Country of Origin: IndiaRegion: DarjeelingTea Estate: Margaret's HopeAltitude: between 1800m to 2200mGrade: FTGFOP1 (Fine Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe-a medium whole leaf)Manufacture Type: OrthodoxMargaret’s Hope Estate produces some of the most sought-after teas in India. The tea bushes at Margaret’s Hope are mostly from the Chinese variety of Camellia sinensis and grown at altitudes of 6000 - 7,000 ft above sea level. Growth is much slower in the cool weather at this altitude producing limited crops.
This special china, FTGFOP1 grade is a beautiful tea with a nuanced fruity-floral taste profile. Dry leaves are primarily black and brown in color with a fair amount of green leaves and some silvery tips. The deep golden liquor has a delicate citrusy aroma with a well balanced fruity and floral taste profile with notes of orange blossom and tropical fruits. This smooth, subtle-bodied cup with a long fruity finish is sure to delight you.
Steeping: 2 teaspoonful per cup (2-3g tea per 8 ounces/ 240 ml) of water at 85°C (185°F) for 3 - 3 1/2 minutes. For the second infusion we recommend same temperature for 4 minutes.
*** If you don’t have a thermometer handy to measure your water temperature, don’t worry! Here is an eye guide--
180° F / 82° C = bubbles form on the bottom of the pot
195° F / 90° C = the first bubbles begin to rise
212° F / 100° C = full rolling boil
----We source our teas directly from Darjeeling, that is why we can offer such good prices for these high quality teas----
