The perfect cup of afternoon tea
The Himalayan city of Darjeeling is located in the northern state of Bengal India and is often referred to as the Champagne of black tea production. The combination of the region's mountainous terrain, heavy rainfall, and year round temperate climate create a flavor of tea unique to this geographic region.
Summer Harvest teas (aka Second flush teas) are harvested between the end of May to the end of June and produce the boldest natural flavor of tea out of the four flushes. Eli Tea Second Flush Darjeeling Is an estate tea grown at over 6,000 ft above sea level. When brewed this tea produces a coppery liquor and classic muscatel-Darjeeling flavor great for an afternoon of tea and scones.
