Perfect Darjeeling
Excellent 2nd flush from a lauded premium company. Super fast shipping. The 2nd flush has the sought after characteristic of muscatel flavour & was reasonably fresh.

Been enjoying this tea for over 5 years now
This is one of those tea experiences that can't be replaced. One of my friends introduced me to this tea and I'm hooked for good. Glad it's also available in NYC. Every sip is refreshing and aroma is fulfilling.

I had first tasted what was Castleton Muscatel Darjeeling Tea in Darjeeling 15th Nov 2020 (see picture) on 1 Robertson Road near Sonar Bangla Restaurant Hotel the road that leads to the Mall, and the aroma haunted me, lingering in my memory like a delightful dream. What makes this tea so unforgettable is the muscatel flavor—a rare and exquisite characteristic unique to the second flush of Darjeeling teas. The second flush refers to the harvest that takes place from late spring to early summer. During this period, the tea leaves mature under the perfect combination of warm sunlight and mountain mist, developing a rich, complex flavor. Muscatel, often described as having a sweet, fruity, grape-like note with hints of honey and a touch of spiced nuttiness, is a prized hallmark of these teas. It’s not just a taste but an experience, a delicate interplay of sweetness and briskness that sets Darjeeling apart from any other tea in the world. GOODRICKE the company which packages and markets Castleton Muscatel Darjeeling Tea captures this magic beautifully. From the moment you open the pack, the aroma is intoxicating—sweet and inviting. When brewed, the liquor is golden amber, and every sip carries the signature muscatel notes with a lingering finish that feels like a gentle caress. It’s no wonder this tea is celebrated globally as the "Champagne of Teas." Five stars are well deserved for a tea that embodies such perfection in every aspect.
