Darjeeling is something like the royal class among black teas. Not for nothing is this tea variety also called the "champagne of tea", because only tea from certain tea gardens in Darjeeling may also bear this name.

This particular Darjeeling is also one of the higher quality of its kind. The designation TGFOP refers to the leaf grade and thus the quality grade of the tea. The special feature of this Darjeeling, however, is that it comes from the Chinese tea plant, Camellia Sinensis. Normally, the tea plant native to India, Camellia Assamica, is used. This is better adapted to the local weather, grows faster and has larger leaves. The Chinese tea plant has smaller leaves and is less productive, but finer and softer in taste.

A soft, full-bodied and flowery Darjeeling awaits. When infused, a light aroma fills the room. Due to the high quality, you should not let our Darjeeling China Seed TGFOP infuse longer than two minutes. All the better, because the faster you can enjoy its unique pleasure.

Ingredients: black tea from India.
