MakaibariSummer Solstice Muscatel Loose Leaf Black Tea 100g (3.52oz) Pack | Pure Unblended Organic Darjeeling Second Flush Black Tea, Delightfully Rich Flavor & Aroma, Second Flush Harvest | 50 Cups

I brewed per instructions on back - 90 C (about 195 F), for 5 min. The brew color was perfect, the taste aromatic and full of fresh muscatel flavor. Goes well either as a breakfast or afternoon tea. Have been enjoying daily.

This tea is light and not strong, it can be consumed during the day and in the evening (sleep is not disturbed). Beautiful in color. I would like to hope that its smoothed qualities (light taste, low tannin content (maybe) will be more favorable for organs and systems my organism.

The estate is one of the oldest in the world producing fine grade biodynamic darjeeling leaf for a century. Fascinating

I have been drinking Darjeeling tea since I was a teenager, because where I come from it is a regular thing there, so I think I know when it is the exact first flush flavour and when it is not !Pros :Color - I guess that’s about the only good thing except for the Strength, which is up to the mark as well ! It does have the golden brown color after brewing, that a cup of authentic Darjeeling Tea should possess !Cons : Quite a few 😕Taste : not at all what was expected ! I have tasted Darjeeling tea from the brand Vadham, and while they don’t market it to be ‘Original Makaibari’, their tea tastes much better than this one. I don’t taste any of the notes that are mentioned in the product (neither citrus, nor floral). It tends to turn bitter very quickly, even when you have dipped it for just 20-30 seconds.Smell : Another disappointment!Darjeeling tea is known for its smell ! Atleast that’s the kind of tea I have grown up drinking ! You should be aware of its aroma from at least a 100 ft distance. This is nothing like that ! All it has is a faint scent, which you can find in any good CTC processed tea if you brew it well ! Disappointing!Neutral :Freshness : I guess you can feel a bit energised after drinking this, but honestly the lack of aroma and average taste of this tea, disappoints me so much so that this is an irrelevant point !Overall wouldn’t recommend this, if you’re looking for a good Darjeeling tea then there are other better brands out there!

Love this tea it light and has delicate flavor

I was so excited that I am going to relish the aroma and the taste of first flush. It felt like I was drinking just hot water. So disappointed!

Excellent tea for daily use.

Good tea for the price but not the best Darjeeling Muscatel flavor

Yea dust

One of the best teas I have had .. amazing that the first flush Darjeeling tea is so wonderful. I love it ! Less caffeine than normal teas .. very mild flavor .. just right ..

Nice pleasant flavour 👌🏾

Tea leaves are good but the pyramid bags quality are very poor . I received the pack with at least eight broken bags. Rest tea bags become open when dipping in boiled water and thus become very messy condition. So it is not worth to buy tea bags with so much price.

Really like this flush. Specially for the muscatel flavour.
