Margaret's Hope 2nd Flush Darjeeling

Darjeelings are often referred to as the champagne of tea. On the foothills of the Himalayas

among wildflowers, one of the most sought-after teas in the world is produced, having a rich balanced fruity body, and a lovely bright cup

it's a delight from this famous estate renowned for consistently highest quality.

The bushes at Margaret’s Hope are almost exclusively the Chinese Jat and tend the tippy green appearance and fragrance of the leaf, growing at high

altitudes with cooler weather conditions produce a smaller but better quality harvest with a complex bouquet some would describe as nutty.

India/Darjeeling

The best time of year for a developed flavour is during "second flush” (end of May or end of June) in this period Darjeelings are incomparable to any other tea in the world.

Established in 1859 and originally called Bara-Ringtong after the two rivers that flow through the estate. By the 1930’s the garden was owned by Mr Bagdon

who visited regularly from London, he had two daughters the younger was called Margaret, and upon visiting the garden with her father for the first time, she fell in love with

its enchanting charm saying to her father she "hoped one day to return and make it her home."
Unfortunately, she fell ill on board a ship on the journey back to England and died soon afterwards, in her memory her father renamed the estate.
Margaret’s Hope Darjeeling is classic, displaying the right balance of flavours that make this tea so prized.

Makes a wonderful afternoon tea with scones and preserves!
