Margaret's Hope Second Flush Darjeeling – Muscatel Summer Darjeeling

Margaret's Hope is one of the five most famous tea gardens in India — a name every connoisseur of top-quality tea knows well. Nestled in the misty Kurseong valley at elevations reaching up to 1, 830 meters, the garden's cool climate and slow leaf growth produce teas of remarkable complexity and fragrance.

Our Margaret's Hope Second Flush Darjeeling is a 2025 summer harvest graded FTGFOP1, crafted from finely plucked, tippy leaves that represent the very best of the season. Light, bright and incredibly refreshing, it's delicate yet full of the prized muscatel grape character Darjeeling is famous for, with a clean, floral and crisp finish.

Tasting Notes

  • Liquor: rich amber gold
  • Aroma: ripe muscatel grapes, rosewood and sun-dried apricot
  • Flavor: honeyed plum and orange blossom with a soft, nutty undercurrent
  • Body: smooth and medium-bodied
  • Finish: crisp and floral, with a touch of spice

Why You'll Love It

Elegant and expressive, this second flush from Margaret's Hope captures the soul of Darjeeling in full summer bloom. It's fuller and fruitier than a first flush, with a warm, nutty depth that makes it wonderfully satisfying — a refined, aromatic tea for those who appreciate heritage in every sip.

  • From the famous Margaret's Hope estate
  • High-grade FTGFOP1 tippy leaves
  • Classic muscatel and honeyed plum notes
  • Smooth, medium body with a crisp finish

How to Enjoy

Savor it plain to appreciate its layered fruit and floral notes, or with a small splash of milk if you prefer. It's perfect for afternoon tea and pairs beautifully with fruit tarts, scones, almond cake and mild cheeses.

Refined, aromatic and steeped in history, Margaret's Hope Second Flush is a Darjeeling to treasure.
