{"title":"Darjeeling loose leaf tea","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIn general, our darjeeling loose leaf tea collection represents some of the finest teas in the world. Known as the 'Champagne of tea', Darjeeling has produced superb quality black teas since 1856. We have carefully sourced our selection from the finest tea-growing plantations across the Darjeeling region of West Bengal, India.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eBy contrast, darjeeling loose leaf tea comes in three distinctive flush varieties. First flush teas offer a light, floral astringency and are the most sought after. Second flush teas are renowned for their distinctive muscatel aroma. Autumnal flush Darjeelings give a delicate and beautifully muted cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eDarjeeling Loose Leaf Tea — Heritage and History\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIndeed, darjeeling loose leaf tea has been commercially produced since 1856. We are proud to stock teas from estates tracing their roots to the very earliest gardens. The renowned Happy Valley Estate has grown loose leaf tea since 1854. It predates even the first commercial plantations in the region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eMoreover, Margaret's Hope Estate in West Bengal was established in the 1830s. It continues to produce its famous Darjeeling teas to this day. With such a rich heritage, darjeeling loose leaf tea estates have also been quick to innovate. Organic, biodynamic and decaffeinated options are now part of many estates' offerings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eOur Darjeeling Loose Leaf Tea Selection\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFurthermore, darjeeling loose leaf tea makes a famously good afternoon cuppa owing to its low malt and bitter characteristics. Look out for flavours of grape, apricot, plum and citrus as well as floral and woody aromas. Low in tannins, these teas are equally enjoyable with or without milk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eOrganic, Biodynamic and Decaf Options\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAdditionally, for organically cultivated darjeeling loose leaf tea, we highly recommend our Singell Estate second flush. Its velvety muscatel flavour is exceptional. Alternatively, try Avongrove's organic second flush for a full-bodied and aromatic brew. Both are outstanding examples of what Darjeeling's finest estates can produce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIndeed, Darjeeling is also home to some of the world's most innovative tea producers. For a truly distinctive experience, explore our decaffeinated and biodynamic options from pioneering estates.

Assam, sprawling across the fertile lowland plains of the Brahmaputra River valley, has been producing some of the world's most powerful black teas since the East India Company first recognised its potential in the 1830s. Darjeeling, perched high in the Himalayan foothills of West Bengal, grows its tea on cool, mist-covered slopes at elevations of up to 6,000 feet, producing a cup of delicate muscatel complexity that has earned it the nickname the Champagne of teas. This Assam Darjeeling blend brings the two together in a BOP grade loose leaf — and the result is a black tea of real depth and character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe BOP grade — Broken Orange Pekoe — means the leaf has been carefully processed to give a brisk, full-bodied infusion that brews evenly and reliably. The Assam provides the backbone: bold, malty, and warming, with the rich depth that has made it the cornerstone of classic British breakfast blends for generations. The Darjeeling does something quite different — it softens the edges, introduces a lighter, more floral quality, and allows a hint of that characteristic muscatel note to come through on the finish. Neither tea overwhelms the other. The Assam has the strength; the Darjeeling has the elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThis is a blend that works beautifully with milk, where the malty Assam comes forward with real warmth and body. Brew it black and the Darjeeling character becomes more apparent — brighter, more aromatic, with a gently astringent finish that is genuinely refreshing. It is an unusually versatile cup, and one that suits late mornings and unhurried weekend brunches particularly well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eSince 2008, High Teas London has been one of the country's leading independent tea specialists, building a collection of over 350 teas and infusions sourced from the world's finest gardens.

Use one heaped teaspoon per cup, or a generous two teaspoons per 500ml if brewing in a pot, and steep for three to four minutes. Shorter steeping times will bring out the Darjeeling character more clearly; a longer steep will push the malty Assam notes to the fore. Both approaches are worth trying. This blend takes milk particularly well, but a cup brewed on the lighter side and drunk black is a different, equally rewarding experience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"High Teas London","offers":[{"title":"50g","offer_id":7691659968548,"sku":"DAAS-50-RA125","price":3.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"125g","offer_id":7691660034084,"sku":"DAAS-125-RA125","price":6.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g","offer_id":7691660132388,"sku":"DAAS-250-RA125","price":12.87,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g","offer_id":7691660197924,"sku":"DAAS-500-RA125","price":24.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"60g","offer_id":41190086934706,"sku":"DAAS-60-RA125","price":4.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"150g","offer_id":41190088933554,"sku":"DAAS-150-RA125","price":9.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/2161\/7956\/files\/Darjeeling_AssamBlendBOP-OurBrunchTeaPM_73ce771d-1e01-45d5-9176-41db09df0d95.jpg?v=1778161501"},{"product_id":"darjeeling-second-flush-loose-leaf-tea-happy-valley-ftgfop1","title":"Darjeeling Second Flush Loose Leaf Tea - Happy Valley FTGFOP1","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"553\" data-end=\"958\"\u003eOur \u003cstrong data-start=\"557\" data-end=\"599\"\u003eDarjeeling second flush loose leaf tea\u003c\/strong\u003e from Happy Valley Estate is a beautifully expressive FTGFOP1 black tea with rich amber liquor, classic muscatel grape character and a bright, elegant finish.

In the 1930s, the garden was owned by a London-based proprietor who visited regularly and brought his two daughters with him. The younger, Margaret, saw the estate for the first time and fell utterly in love with it, vowing one day to return. She never did. Margaret fell ill on the voyage back to England and died at sea, and her heartbroken father renamed the garden in her memory. It is said that her spirit still visits the estate bungalow, entering through the guest room and drifting quietly out through the verandah towards the tennis courts. Many guests over the years have claimed to feel her presence. Whether or not you believe in such things, there is something hauntingly beautiful about a tea garden named for hope rather than achievement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThat story aside, Margaret's Hope is one of the most celebrated single estates in all of Darjeeling for very practical reasons. The bushes are almost entirely Chinese Jat in origin, which accounts for the leaf's green-tipped, tippy appearance and the estate's distinctively fine fragrance. High altitude growth slows the bushes considerably, concentrating flavour and complexity in a way that lower-grown teas simply cannot replicate. This is a second flush — harvested from the end of May into June, when the Himalayan summer brings warmth, rapid growth, and the unique atmospheric conditions that produce the muscatel character Darjeeling is so rightly famous for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIn the cup, it pours a warm amber with a copper glow. The flavour is medium-bodied and gently brisk, with that unmistakable muscatel quality — ripe muscat grape, a touch of blackcurrant, a soft and lingering floral sweetness. There is real balance here: depth without heaviness, character without aggression.

Use freshly drawn water brought just off the boil — around 90 to 95°C rather than a full rolling boil, which can dull the delicate muscatel notes. Place one pyramid bag in your cup and steep for 3 to 4 minutes. This tea is at its finest drunk without milk; the muscatel character and floral sweetness come through most clearly when enjoyed black. A small squeeze of fresh lemon is a lovely alternative if you prefer something a little brighter. Avoid over-steeping, as Darjeeling teas can become slightly astringent if left too long — when in doubt, start with 3 minutes and adjust from there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Metro","offers":[{"title":"20 pyramids   M165","offer_id":7724994002980,"sku":"HI-PY7","price":6.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 pyramids   M165","offer_id":41251237658802,"sku":"","price":20.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 pyramids gift   M165","offer_id":41251239133362,"sku":"","price":8.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"40 pyramids gift   M165","offer_id":41251241001138,"sku":"","price":15.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/2161\/7956\/products\/Margaret_shopeS.jpg?v=1778163782"},{"product_id":"decaffeinated-darjeeling-loose-leaf-tea-tgfop","title":"Darjeeling TGFOP Decaffeinated Loose Leaf Black Tea","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"534\" data-end=\"956\"\u003eOur \u003cstrong data-start=\"538\" data-end=\"581\"\u003eDecaffeinated Darjeeling loose leaf tea\u003c\/strong\u003e is a refined TGFOP black tea for those who love the floral elegance and gentle muscatel character of Darjeeling, but prefer to enjoy it with very little caffeine.

The Tregothnan estate, situated near Truro on the banks of the River Fal in Cornwall, is the home of the first tea grown commercially in England, making it unlike any other tea garden in the world. The hand-plucked Cornish tea leaves in this afternoon blend are combined with carefully selected Darjeeling from the gardens of northern India — a region long celebrated as producing the champagne of teas — to create a cup of real refinement and character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe story of Tregothnan begins long before the first tea was grown. The Boscawen family has owned the estate since 1334, and its remarkable botanical garden flourished for centuries — it was home to the first outdoor camellias in the United Kingdom, a genus closely related to Camellia sinensis, the tea plant. In 1999, the first tea bushes were planted. By 2005, the first English-grown tea had reached Fortnum and Mason. The estate's microclimate along the River Fal mirrors the misty, humid foothills of the Himalayas, giving the Cornish leaves a delicacy and finesse entirely their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIn the cup, the result is light, aromatic, and gently invigorating. The Darjeeling brings its characteristic floral lift and citrus brightness, while the Tregothnan leaf adds a smooth, soft body and a quiet sense of place that no other tea in the world can replicate. It is best tried without milk, which would soften the subtler notes — though a touch of honey suits those who prefer a gentle sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eSince 2008, High Teas London has been one of the country's leading independent tea specialists, curating a collection of over 350 teas and infusions from gardens and estates around the world.

The Tregothnan Estate, a 2,000-acre private estate on the banks of the River Fal in Cornwall, has been home to the Boscawen family since 1334 and is the only commercially productive tea garden in the UK. The estate's unique microclimate — shaped by a deep sea creek running six miles inland, protecting the plants from Atlantic salt winds while the river warms the earth and keeps the frost at bay — creates conditions remarkably similar to the foothills of the Himalayas where Darjeeling is grown. It was precisely this parallel that led head gardener Jonathon Jones to plant the first tea bushes in 1999, and in 2005 Tregothnan became the first estate in Britain to sell its own tea — their debut harvest going to Fortnum and Mason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThis Afternoon Tea blend is the estate's most quintessentially British expression.

Place the sachet in a pre-warmed cup, pour the water gently, and allow it to steep without squeezing — the Cristal® sachet will do the work quietly. Remove after your preferred time, and drink without milk to appreciate the full muscatel character. A shorter steep of around 3 minutes gives a lighter, more floral cup; 5 minutes brings more body and a slightly deeper flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Dammann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54197388738945,"sku":"DADA-24","price":14.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/2161\/7956\/files\/Screenshot_2025-04-02_at_15.25.36.png?v=1778161812"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/2161\/7956\/collections\/Darjeeling_30fccfd3-b6bc-41ab-8b1b-06ff07f0cafe.jpg?v=1778161472","url":"https:\/\/highteas.co.uk\/collections\/darjeeling-loose-leaf-tea.oembed?page=3","provider":"High Teas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
