Indian Black Teas

Even before Robert Fortune and the British introduced tea to Darjeeling in the foothills of the Himalayas, tea was enjoyed in northern India.  Today India produces sought after loose leaf teas from estates in Darjeeling, Assam, Nilgiri and beyond!  The changing growing seasons in India, and the changes in geography and climate treat us to intriguing tastes when one drinks a first flush Darjeeling, or a second flush Assam. Don't forget a spicy Chai.
