Jungpana Black Tea from Udyan Tea
Style: Darjeeling Autumnal Flush – Region: Darjeeling, India80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 16th, 2016
This tea is subtly different from other Darjeelings. The leaf is big and looks more like a Wuyi oolong than anything from Darjeeling. The aroma is rich and deep, notes of caramel and malt, a hint of the characteristic fruity/floral/vegetal notes, more typical for an autumnal flush Darjeeling.
Upon pouring the wate...
Gopaldhara Red Thunder Black Tea from Udyan Tea
Style: Darjeeling Autumnal Flush – Region: Darjeeling, India77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5

I liked this tea, but I would not describe it as "thunder"; it's too mellow. Following the rumbling sound analogy, it would be more like "a natural-gas-powered bus goes by", but I guess that doesn't sound quite as sexy.
Dry leaf has a strong aroma, mostly nutty, suggesting sweetness. The aroma suggests warmth.

Seeyok Autumnal Black Tea from Udyan Tea
Style: Darjeeling Autumnal Flush – Region: Darjeeling, India83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5

This was a dark, rich, smooth, and naturally sweet tea with a mysterious pungent aroma, which changed its character a lot resteeping.
Dry leaf is a fairly uniform brown, and has a strong and intriguing aroma, malty and suggesting sweetness, but very fresh and light.
As I pour the water, immediately a strong fruit...
Castleton China Black Tea from Udyan Tea

Wow. Udyan tea recently sent me some samples, and they are of impressive quality. This is the first sample I'm reviewing, and only the second tea I've ever tried from Castleton estate. It got my attention immediately as a top-quality tea.
The dry leaf of this tea is explosively aromatic and the aroma is extraordin...
Gopaldhara Gold Darjeeling Black Tea Autumn Flush from Golden Tips
Style: Darjeeling Autumnal Flush – Region: Darjeeling, India80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 10th, 2015
This second-flush Darjeeling was very different from the other one from Jungpana estate, that I just tried from this same company. I prepared them the same ways. I didn't like this tea as much, but it was still good.
The dry leaf is not quite as intensely aromatic, but has a fascinating aroma with a fleeting winte...
Jungpana Premium Darjeeling Black Tea Autumn Flush (Organic) from Golden Tips
Style: Darjeeling Autumnal Flush – Region: Darjeeling, India87 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 10th, 2015
Excellent! Probably the maltiest Darjeeling tea I've ever tried, yet smoother and without the tannic edge of an Assam. Otherwise, typical for an autumnal flush.
Dry leaf has a rich, caramelly aroma, fruit, malty for a Darjeeling, and suggesting sweetness.
Upon brewing produces a cup with a rich fruity aroma, so...
Organic/Biodynamic Darjeeling Autumnal from Divinitea
Style: Darjeeling Autumnal Flush – Region: Darjeeling, India83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5

I tend to love everything that comes out of Makaibari estate, and this tea is no exception. I still think I prefer their first flush and long-leaf greens, but this was another very good tea, and people who like darker black teas might actually prefer this one.
A fairly complex Darjeeling. Powerful grape-like aroma...
Golden Wire - GopalDhara from Fresh Darjeeling Tea
Style: Darjeeling Autumnal Flush – Region: Darjeeling, India77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 2nd, 2010
Like the other teas I've tried from Fresh Darjeeling tea, this is totally unlike any other black tea I've ever tried.
Aroma very complex...malty, and much more vegetal than most black teas, and with some savory qualities, a hint of smokiness. Reminds me of a tippy assam more than any other Darjeeling I've tried. I...
