Thurbo is one of Darjeeling’s most storied estates, and ‘invoice tea’ refers to a lot bought directly at auction rather than blended down the line – meaning what’s in the tin traces back to a single, specific pick. The muscatel note this tea is known for – a grapey, almost wine-like character – only shows up in certain flushes, making this a genuinely limited find.

100% Darjeeling long-leaf black tea
Steep 1 tsp per cup in 90-95°C water for 3-4 minutes.
Light fruitcake, madeleines, mild cheese
