Majestic Mumbai

First of all, many thanks to *Tea Equals Bliss" for sending some of this my way!

I steeped about 1 tsp. of this in my infuser mug for about 3 minutes. I got a very light orangish-tan tea liquor with some lovely peach and light muscatel notes. I am detecting a bit of spice here in the cup as well. Very smooth and mild cuppa. I might move onto something darker soon after this; yes it is still cold and foggy here while the rest of the country is roasting!

Thanks to T=B for sharing!

Thank you to TeaEqualsBliss for sending me some of this exceptional Darjeeling! I am loving it.

This is one of the smoothest Darjeeling teas that I’ve tasted, and it is quite surprising, actually. It is more robust than I would typically expect from a Darjeeling – this is not really that light, sparkling kind of Darjeeling (although it does have some of those notes) as this has much more body and flavor than I might experience in a typical Darjeeling. This one has some gusto to it!

It is very flavorful, with not only the muscat grape-y kind of flavor, but also a deep black currant and even a hint of plum to it. Hints of wood throughout. The finish is slightly dry, with a sweet and tangy aftertaste.

A really delicious Darjeeling, I like this one a lot!

This is fantastic! I just got it today and had to open it right up!!! It’s NOT your stereotypical Darjeeling and that’s what I like about it! It’s rich but not overly bold…I would say medium bold. It’s quite smooth and even for a darjeeling and I think that’s very special! I really REALLY like this!!!!
