Our Darjeeling Tea reviewed by Tea Lovers

{facebook-share}

I read it and thought you might be interested in reading it. Some of our teas are reviewed by “TeaViews” at Teaviews.com. I am providing links to two of our teas – Darjeeling First Flush 2009 reviews:

  • Arya SFTGFOP1: Reviewed by Steven who tags it as “The tea packs a kick on second cup, which as I’ve said before, is the “sweet spot” in any pot. The brightness is such a serious part of this tea!” Steven rates this tea 8 out of 10. Found out Steven also has his personal blog about tea which he calls 39Steeps. Click here for review
  • Giddapahar Ch. Wiry Tippy: Reviewed by Vanessa who tags it as “The flavor of this tea is complex, and requires a little concentration to fully appreciate it. This is an excellent Darjeeling and one that you are not likely to encounter every day.” Vanessa rates this tea 8.5 out of 10. Click here for review
  • Puttabong SFTGFOP1: Reviewed by Vanessa who tags it as “Tastewise, this is a very complex tea which requires some concentration; this tea is probably best suited to an alert and focused drinker. Flavors of fruit, flowers, butter, nuts, mint, and grass/earth were all present. However the problem with this tea was that it was extremely bitter, as in bitter enough to negate many of the positive attributes.” Vanessa rates this tea 5.5 out of 10. Click here for review

Now talking of Second Flush 2009 Darjeeling Teas, sincerely, its a tough find this year. Teas are available (less is appropriate), but for us picking or purchasing it with the thought of its “unavailability” can result in a disaster. Pickings are done after careful tasting. For us hurrying can prove fatal at the moment. This is all due to the adverse weather conditions recently faced by Darjeeling Tea gardens. Will blog more about this later. In the meantime, enjoy the reviews done at Teaviews.com
