Our Decaffeinated Darjeeling loose leaf tea 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. Light, smooth and beautifully aromatic, it brews to a clear amber cup with soft grape-like sweetness and a calm, polished finish — ideal for afternoons and evenings when a finer black tea still feels just right.
Decaffeinated Darjeeling Loose Leaf Tea with TGFOP Character
Darjeeling TGFOP Decaffeinated offers the graceful character of a fine Himalayan black tea in a form that suits later-day drinking. The TGFOP grade, or Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe, reflects careful leaf selection and the presence of attractive golden tips.
This is a tea for those who do not want to compromise on flavour simply because they are choosing decaffeinated. It remains recognisably Darjeeling: light in body, aromatic in the cup and delicately expressive.
Floral, Lightly Muscatel and Smooth
In the cup, this decaffeinated Darjeeling loose leaf tea brews to a luminous amber liquor with a soft, elegant aroma. The flavour is gently floral, with a subtle muscatel sweetness and a clean finish that lingers without heaviness.
It has the poised, refined style associated with Darjeeling, making it a particularly satisfying choice for tea drinkers who prefer lighter black teas over stronger breakfast blends.
A Fine Decaffeinated Black Tea for Later in the Day
Many decaffeinated teas can feel muted, but this one retains a pleasing sense of lift and character. The cup remains bright, smooth and aromatic, giving you a genuinely enjoyable Darjeeling experience without the full caffeine level of a standard black tea.
That makes it an excellent option for quiet afternoon cups, early evening drinking or anyone reducing caffeine while still wanting something more elegant than a basic decaf blend.

Best Enjoyed Without Milk

For Darjeeling drinkers who want a more evening-friendly option, this is a particularly graceful choice.
How to Brew Decaffeinated Darjeeling Loose Leaf Tea

Taste at the three-minute mark first. A little longer will deepen the cup while keeping the finish smooth and balanced.
