Darjeeling 1st flush 2026, Maharani Hills FTGFOP1 - 100g

Darjeeling tea comes from the North Indian province of Darjeeling, which is located at the foot of the Himalayas. Here the bushes grow at an altitude of up to 2000 m and are called the “champagne of teas”.

Maharani Hills produces an outstanding quality with greenish-tippy first flush leaves at over 2,000 meters. A sweet floral aroma, slightly fruity and with a balanced astringency.

Flavour: soft with a fresh and flowery character

Ingredienser: sort te.

Preparation

Darjeeling 1st flush is brewed in a preheated pot.

The water must not boil for a long time, as this will boil the oxygen out of the water.

Use 1 tsp. tea per cup.

Pour 90-95 degrees hot water over the leaves.

Steeping time: 3 – 4 minutes.

Since the tea leaves give the best results by floating freely, you can use a spacious strainer in the preheated teapot, or pour the tea onto a preheated teapot.

Tips

The tea can also be brewed in cold water for 4-6 hours, and enjoyed as a refreshing cold tea with delicate flavor notes. Use approx. 1 small tbsp. per liter of water.

Store dry and cool.
