Organic Darjeeling Summer Samabeong

About Organic Darjeeling Summer Samabeong

This Darjeeling Summer Samabeong captures the essence of summer in Darjeeling. Our organic tea of exquisite FTGFOP1 quality grade is made exclusively from the youngest, most tender buds of the second flush. The hand-picked, chocolate-brown, long leaves produce a bright, golden-orange infusion. Clear aromas of cedar, honeysuckle, and orange blossom unfold in the cup, combined with the honey-sweet taste of Mirabelle plums and muscatel. This organic Darjeeling finishes with a smooth note and lingering sweetness, while longer infusions reveal a dark liquor with greater complexity.

About Darjeeling

Darjeeling is a tea variety from the Indian district of Darjeeling, the centre of Bengali tea cultivation around the city of Darjeeling. Notably, the finer Chinese variety is predominantly grown here, mainly processed into black tea. This gives Darjeeling tea its unmistakable taste among black teas: it is made from a variety usually processed into green tea. Today, green tea production is increasing in Darjeeling, but the region owes its fame to black tea.

Cultivation

Samabeong, one of the most elevated and remote organic tea gardens in the region, is a true natural paradise. Nestled in forest and river valleys, this garden is rich in flora and fauna and home to an impressive variety of species. The complex soil, cool climate, and altitude of over 2,000 meters above sea level create ideal conditions for the distinctive taste profile of Darjeeling tea.

Effects

Darjeeling tea contains moderate amounts of caffeine, promoting alertness and concentration while also having a calming effect and lowering blood pressure. Its high concentration of antioxidants, such as flavonoids and polyphenols, helps neutralize free radicals. The tannins in Darjeeling tea aid digestion and contribute to overall health but should be consumed in moderation to preserve its positive effects.

How to enjoy

This organic Darjeeling Summer Samabeong is ideal as a relaxing afternoon tea or an elegant accompaniment to special occasions. Its complex aroma blends wonderfully with fine pastries, light desserts, or fresh fruit. Enjoy this tea in a quiet atmosphere to fully savour its diverse nuances of taste.
