TYPES OF TEA IN DARJEELING BY GOPALDHARA TEA ESTATE
Black Tea True connoisseurs of tea appreciate the timeless elegance of Darjeeling Black Tea, sourced from the renowned Darjeeling region in India. The leaves, harvested from the Camellia Sinensis plant, undergo full oxidation, giving the tea its distinctive dark color and rich flavor. Nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas, Darjeeling’s unique climate and soil impart a special character to its tea. Often referred to as the “champagne of teas,” Darjeeling whole leaf black tea offers a delicate taste profile, with notes that can range from fruity and floral to musky.
Green Tea Green tea, which originated in China over 4,000 years ago, was initially used for medicinal purposes before becoming a popular beverage. Legend has it that Emperor Shen Nong discovered green tea in 2737 BCE when leaves accidentally fell into a cup of boiling water. Today, green tea is celebrated worldwide for its refreshing taste and numerous health benefits. Below are some of the unique features of green tea.
White Tea Darjeeling White Tea, often referred to as the “Champagne of Teas,” is renowned for its delicate taste. Grown in the Darjeeling region of India, this tea is harvested from the young, tender buds and top leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant during the first flush of the season. The production process involves minimal processing, including gentle withering and drying, which helps preserve the tea’s natural taste and flavor. The resulting tea leaves have a floral aroma and are pale, golden in color. This tea offers a sweet taste with subtle hints of fruit and a delicate nutty undertone.

The harvesting process avoids synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, ensuring purity and integrity.

This special treatment enhances the tea’s richness and reduces its natural astringency, resulting in a smooth and nuanced cup. Whether you are a seasoned tea connoisseur or a curious newcomer, Darjeeling roasted tea promises a refined, robust taste that will linger delightfully on the palate.
