Grace ★★★★★

I usually drink blends, so I wasn't sure what to expect from a single-estate loose leaf, but the floral-fruity notes really come through in the second flush. Steeped it at 90°C for about three minutes and got almost no bitterness, just that soft nutty finish.

Richard X. ★★★★★

The muscatel note in this 2nd flush is exactly what I look for in a Darjeeling, and it comes through clean without any bitterness if you steep it around three minutes. Floral and a little fruity on the finish, maybe a faint nuttiness too. My weekend mornings are better for it.

Miles Z. ★★★★★

I've been drinking Darjeeling for years, and this 2nd flush actually delivers that muscatel thing people always talk about. Steeped it for about three minutes and got a clean cup with a nutty finish, no bitterness at all. Already ordered a second bag.
