LOVE AT FIRST FLUSH

We are Darjeeling devotees and this tea is among the finest we have had, including Mariage Freres First Flush. Light with great body, smooth, non-acidic flavor, delightful aroma. Consistently fine, with always delightfully subtle variation. Full Leaf has become our standard. (And their service matches the high quality of their teas!)

Hi Kerry, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience! We're delighted to hear our Darjeeling First Flush has become your standard and that you enjoy its subtle nuances. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to serving you more high-quality teas. Cheers!

Excellent

I really enjoy the Darjeeling. It tastes great and the fact that it's organic sets me at ease regarding chemical pesticides which are so common in agriculture today. I brew it for 3 minutes in a French press. Quick and easy and comes out perfect. A single teaspoon of tea leaves gives me 2 cups of tea. I will buy more

Perfect for my daily teas

Love this!

I tried several different samples of the black teas as I recently switched from my morning coffee to tea. The Darjeeling First Flush is just lovely. I would say quite different than the English Breakfast (an old favorite) and the Assam (a new favorite). It’s definitely one of my new favs that I will always have on hand. I highly recommend you give it a try!

Delightful!

I ordered 3 sample bags of various teas and enjoyed each one very much! The flavor on each one was delightful! I'm coming back to order a full size bag of the Darjeeling and Oolong because I enjoyed them so much. Thank you, Full Leaf Tea Co!
