Description

Located high in the hills of Darjeeling, Tumsong has long made great teas. This was very evident in 2022, when they were one the few estates that made a Muscatel Darjeeling. Muscatel is that rare tea that the tea growers want an inscent infestation. When these leaf hoppers start munching on the tea leaves, the tea plant retaliates by making a bug repellant. Turns out that particular repellant has a lovely fruity flavor that is reminiscent of muscatel grapes. Always a joy to sip!

Ingredients: Black tea.
