A first flush 2011 Darjeeling tea from Margaret's Hope Estate is wonderfully delicate.
Many, many years ago, Margaret, the daughter of the English estate grower, fell in love with her father's tea gardens in Darjeeling during her visit and hoped to return again soon. Unfortunately she took ill on her way back to England and died. Her father renamed the estate to Margaret's Hope in her memory.
