Darjeeling is an Indian region located in a remote corner in the north east of the country, nestled between Tibet, Nepal and Bhutan. Seven thousand feet above sea level, tall fir trees silently line the valleys, presided over by the mighty Himalayas.
The unique combination of cool misty air, rainfall, steep terrain and a location amongst the clouds contribute to Darjeeling’s refined characteristics. Often referred to as the ‘champagne of teas’, a good cup of Darjeeling can be distinguished by its warm golden colour, subtle muscatel flavour and delicate flowery aroma.
As well as producing a pure Darjeeling tea, Ahmad Tea uses Darjeeling in its English Afternoon Tea.
