Sip away our Darjeeling 2nd Flush, conveniently packaged in a teabag. This black tea is produced in northern India, from the second growth of tea plants in the late spring. Fuller bodied than their 1st Flush counterparts, these teas are celebrated for their rich fragrance, balanced taste, and beautiful copper-colored liquor.

This version hails from the Namring Upper Estate, which was founded in 1855 and is one of the region's oldest. The consistent-sized leaves are dark brown-black with tippy highlights; a subtle cocoa note is released as soon as they are hydrated. The resulting sweet, spicy infusion has aromatic notes of squash blossom and wood.

The material for our teabags is completely plant-derived, and they are electrostatically sealed—without glue or staples—so the pure flavor and aroma of the tea can shine through. Once used, these teabags can be composted at industrial composting facilities.
