Darjeeling Tea

Darjeeling tea is a kind of Camellia sinensis that is cultivated and processed in the West Bengal, India, districts of Darjeeling or Kalimpong. It has a thin, pale tint and a floral scent. Midmorning or early afternoon are the ideal times to consume Darjeeling tea. Like most plants, the tea plant experiences stages of development and dormancy. The tea plant produces new leaves during a time known as a flush, which lasts until the leaves are harvested.

Darjeeling tea is special because it can be made into black, green, white, or oolong tea by processing the leaves in various ways. Midmorning or early afternoon are the ideal times to consume Darjeeling tea.
