Gopaldhara Darjeeling Second Flush Tea Muscatel Black Tea Crafted from 130 years old China Bushes

Rich, robust, and deeply traditional — Gopaldhara Darjeeling Second Flush Classic Muscatel Black Tea is crafted from 130-year-old heritage China bushes, originally planted by the British. These old bushes, known for producing exceptional muscatel teas, yield leaves of rare depth, natural sweetness, and unmistakable character.

This very tippy second flush tea brews into a vibrant orange liquor with an abundant sweet muscatel aroma, delivering a full-bodied, mouth-filling cup. Expect layered flavours of woody warmth, ripe fruity notes, and a classic muscatel richness that old-style Chinary lovers adore. Despite its strength and density, the tea is remarkably smooth, offering zero astringency — just pure muscatel clarity and refinement.

Expertly handpicked and carefully processed into premium broken-leaf grade, this tea is one of Rohini & Gopaldhara’s finest second flush offerings, celebrated for its authenticity and powerful flavour profile.
