The 2009 Jungpana First Flush is a classic muscatel-type Darjeeling. Showing little of the modern-style 'green' leaf that is currently en vogue, this year's Jungpana First Flush has a classic style and depth of flavor that we haven't seen in a First Flush Darjeeling in quite a few years. From one of the premier Darjeeling gardens, this tea is superb.
The Jungpana Tea Estate is situated near the famous town of Darjeeling. The tea gardens have an excellent location and altitude; they lie at 3,000 - 4500 ft and are blessed with a nurturing south-facing orientation. The exceptional quality of tea produced at this estate is derived almost exclusively from China bush leaf.
To consistently produce some of the finest Darjeeling in the world for over a century, the management at Jungpana plucks only the most delicate of leaves. They have mastered the intricacies of manufacture, and make quality a fetish. The Jungpana Estate was planted by the British, then owned initially by the Scotland based Duncan Brothers. Later, it was owned by the Ranas of Nepal and thereafter has been with the Kejriwal family for more than five decades.

Steep 1 infusion at 2 - 4 minutes.
Water temperature should be 185° - 195° F
