C'mon. I know you know your teas and I know you know your way around Darjeelings.

What teas?

Which estates?

Which flush?

Which screenings?

How did they pair with the meals?

I know I don't really have the right to be so bosssy, me being more of a lurker than a poster, but, certainly am curious.

Cheers

Namring is always a reliable estate.

One of my favorites lately has been a First flush from Lingia. It brews a very light cup but the flavours are massive.
