Our teas are packed in clear cylindrical glass jars with dark wooden lids — designed to preserve freshness and built to be reused.

Our jars are fully recyclable, but also made to be kept — for refills, storage, or display.

We use clear glass jars because they are the most universally food-safe option—free from dyes, pigments, or coatings that may contain toxins or heavy metals. While some coloured or tinted glass can be certified safe, clear glass ensures purity, visibility, and peace of mind.

Refills are available in recyclable pouches, offering a lower-waste way to restock.

Every element of our packaging is sustainable and considered with care.

Darjeeling Tea

Darjeeling Tea

Single Estate Black Tea

Darjeeling Black Tea is a world-renowned tea grown in the misty Himalayan foothills of India. Harvested at high altitudes, this premium tea develops a light, crisp body with distinctive muscatel notes, subtle floral undertones, and a hint of stone fruit. Unlike other black teas, Darjeeling undergoes a gentle oxidation process, preserving its delicate complexity. Each flush—First, Second, or Autumn—offers a unique character, making it a prized choice for tea connoisseurs.

With its refined, aromatic profile, Darjeeling is best enjoyed without milk to appreciate its layered flavours. It pairs beautifully with light pastries, fruit, and mild cheeses, making it a versatile tea for any time of day.

Ingredients

100% Organic Black Tea.

Flavour Notes:

Aroma: Floral and fruity, with muscatel grape and light woody notes.
Flavour:
Bright and crisp, with layered muscatel sweetness, floral hints, and subtle spice.

Clean and refreshing, with a lingering floral and fruity complexity.
Pairing:

Origin Story:

Darjeeling Tea has been cultivated in the Himalayan foothills since the 19th century, gaining its reputation as the "Champagne of Teas" due to its unique terroir and complex flavour. The cool climate, high elevation, and misty conditions slow the tea’s growth, allowing the leaves to develop their signature muscatel character. Protected by a Geographical Indication (GI) status, only tea grown in Darjeeling can carry its prestigious name.
