Margaret's Hope 2nd Flush FTGFOP Darjeeling from Culinary Teas

momo drank Margaret's Hope 2nd Flush FTGFOP Darjeeling by Culinary Teas

Thanks, TeaEqualsBliss!

Since second flushes are pretty much my most favorite black tea ever, I definitely enjoy this. It’s not the best one I’ve ever had, but Darjeelings are like pizza. Even the average ones are super tasty. This one somewhat lacks the good, strong muscatel flavors I like in second flushes, but it has nice astringency. It seems far more savory than others I’ve had.

I prefer others, but I wouldn’t turn this one down. I bet it would be a great iced tea, so I’ll have to try that too.

While FF’s are some of my favorite teas, I really like a good SF Darjeeling too! :D I tasted a Margaret’s Hope 2nd many years ago and remember really liking it. There’s nothing like a cup of Darjeeling…….period*.* :))
