Darjeeling Oolong Tea – Loose Leaf

Darjeeling Oolong Tea occupies a rare and celebrated space between green and black tea — partially oxidised to unlock a flavour complexity that neither category can fully achieve on its own. Grown in the high-altitude gardens of Darjeeling, this oolong is a testament to the skill of the tea maker and the exceptional terroir of the region.

The liquor is a beautiful amber-gold, with an aroma that blends floral sweetness with a gentle toasty warmth. On the palate, you’ll discover layers of flavour — fresh orchid and muscatel notes from the Darjeeling origin, balanced by a smooth, slightly honeyed body and a clean, lingering finish. Each sip reveals something new, making it a tea that rewards slow, mindful drinking.

Darjeeling Oolong is naturally rich in polyphenols and antioxidants, and its moderate caffeine content makes it a versatile choice for any time of day. It is particularly popular among tea enthusiasts who appreciate nuance and complexity in their cup.

To brew, use water at 85–90°C and steep for 3–4 minutes. Oolong leaves can often be re-steeped 2–3 times, with each infusion revealing a slightly different character. Best enjoyed without milk to fully appreciate its layered flavour profile.

A truly special tea from one of the world’s most iconic growing regions — Darjeeling Oolong is a must-try for any serious tea lover.
