Darjeeling Autumnal Tea 3.5oz

This is a full-bodied Darjeeling at an affordable price from one of Darjeeling's most historic and respected gardens.

This full-bodied fall harvest tea steeps a rich liquor that is a bit more robust than the First and Second Flush offerings. It's rare to find a Darjeeling with this much bold character and long sweet finish at such an affordable price. 

This tea estate is named for the original founder’s daughter, Margaret. In 1870, Mr. Bagdon, Margaret’s father, was the first to plant tea on the southwest ridge of the Balsun River in Darjeeling, India. He named his tea estate Bara Ringtong. Young Margaret fell in love with the natural scenery of the area, with the Himalayan Mountains rising out from the Kurseong Valley.
 
With plans to soon return, Margaret and her mother left for their home in England while her father stayed in India to oversee the tea estate. Sadly, Margaret fell ill on journey and passed away.
 
Her father was overcome with grief, especially as he couldn’t leave India. Mr. Bagdon decided to rename his tea estate after his daughter so that she would never be far from him
