Avongrove Estate Darjeeling (1st Flush) - Organic
In Darjeeling in the foothills of the Himalayas, spread across two hillsides thickly populated with tea bushes on the crests and thick forest in the valleys, lies the beautiful Avongrove tea estate. This certified "organic" estate takes great pride in their tea, nurturing every leaf from the time it is hand-picked to when it is hand packed. Grown without the use of chemical pesticides or fertilizers, the soil at an organic tea estate is enriched with natural compost. Studies show that organic tea actually contains more antioxidants. The Avongrove Estate is certified "organic" in India, the U.S., the E.U. and Japan.

First flush teas are carefully plucked from March through April. Darjeelings known as the "champagne of teas" have a very distinctive "Darjeeling" or "Muscatel" fragrance. The liquor in this FTGFOP1 is golden in colour. The character is pronounced. Perfect for your afternoon cup. This tea will not disappoint.
To Prepare
Darjeeling (1st Flush) Avongrove is best when brewed with spring water at a temperature of 210° for 3 to 4 minutes. Use one teaspoon for every 8 ounces. Enjoy this tea through 2 infusions.
