On a recent trip to India I was able to source a FF Darjeeling from what is fast becoming a preferred estate to source from, for me: Puttabong Estate. I have a strong liking for FF Darjeelings and last year I came across an end March/early April invoice that was exceptional. This year I opted for an...

Good morning tea friends. Hope my fellow Americans had a lovely 4th of July. We spent it in the Berkshires in the middle of the woods. I carried tea with me. Sitting outside in nature's lap sipping tea is a whole different experience. Highly recommend it. We just finished sourcing new teas and now a...

Puttabong Estate's early invoice First Flush Darjeeling from March 2019. I sourced a later invoice tea from this estate last year and it checked all the boxes for a FF Darjeeling. This season I opted for a slightly fancier grade (SFTGFOP1 vs. FTGFOP1) and a March plucking as opposed to an early Apri...

Recently returned from India and managed to bring back a delicious, early invoice Darjeeling First Flush Tea from Puttabong Estate. This is a March 2019 plucking from the DJ 04 invoice. Typically, I find early invoice teas a bit finicky and opt for the later invoices that tend to be more mellow. But...

Enjoyed reading your profile on your web site. Looks like you carry some really good Darjeeling and Nilgiri. Having the ability to get samples is good too. I added to your TF profile your Instagram and Facebook links. More or less when do you think first flush will be available on your site this ye...

Interesting conversation about Darjeeling FF teas. A couple of observations. I don't know what prices were 10 years back, as I wasn't a vendor then. But for the past several years, Darjeeling FF yield has been slowly but steadily decreasing. Climate change is perhaps the biggest culprit. Concurrentl...
