The story of the leaf

Every house needs one tea that answers the question: where should I begin? This is ours. The Signature Blend is drawn by taste from the harvests we judge most complete — balanced between the brightness of spring and the depth of summer.

A blend of first and second flush Darjeeling, from one registered garden or more. Each component is named to its source. The harvests change with what the season gives; the cup does not. If you hand someone one tin to explain what we do, hand them this.

Muscatel and honey over ripe orchard fruit — balanced, amber and unmistakably Darjeeling.
