Darjeeling Teas
A caffeinated variety of black tea, Darjeeling tea is grown in specific regions of India. The tea is famous for its magnificent flavor, color, and aroma....
Darjeeling tea grows in the shadow of Kangchenjunga, the world's third-highest mountain. It is one of the world's most popular and finest black leaf teas. The tea plantations of Darjeeling, in West Bengal, India, were established in the early nineteenth century by colonial powers.
Fermentation techniques and innovative black tea hybrids followed soon after. Therefore, Darjeeling became internationally recognized and beloved! Discover our range of single-origin Darjeeling teas and breakfast blends.
The Tea Accent's Darjeeling tea collection
The world's tea connoisseurs consider Darjeeling to be the hot beverage equivalent to champagne for many reasons. Apart from its delicate muscatel flavor and hints of almond fragrance, this tea grown at the foothills of the Himalayan Alps is distinguished by its exclusivity.
Darjeeling is not as widely available as other full-bodied black teas in India, such as Assam. Darjeeling contributes only about 1% of India's total tea production, whereas Assam tea makes up approximately 53%! With its curated collection of Darjeeling teas, Tea Accent offers a wide range of single-origin loose leaf teas sourced from orthodox estates.

The first two crops are available in our online and physical stores as First Flush and Second Flush Darjeeling.
