Vervult niet alleen Margareth’s hoop. Het is één van de populairste tuinen. Door een volle smaak en een sterk aroma kan deze thee een permanent deel van elk theeassortiment worden.

This is a darjeeling tea I received as a present from my sister-in-law. Although the pouch only mentions the tea garden of origin, I looked online and saw there they specify it´s an FTGFOP without mentioning year of #flush of harvest. By my own observation of colour, aroma´s and taste I guess it´s a 2nd flush, and not one of last harvest, I would say.
Viva Sara recommends steeping it at 90-95ºC for 2 minutes. I tried at recently boiled, and at 90ºC (I have a kettle for which the thermostat can be set 60-70-80-90-100ºC ), and the result is very similar; also a 2nd steep is still alright (I cannot taste or see a real degradation by doing so). Copper coloured, quite strong floral aroma´s and similar taste…a fine cuppa, but not exactly what I would describe as elegant (for 1st flush references of mine). My stomach reacts slightly as if it were a fermented tea (which I like, don´t get me wrong).
