DARJEELING GREEN TEA

When it comes to Darjeeling Green Tea, we would like to share you a frank opinion. Darjeeling basically focusses on production of Darjeeling Black Teas because it gets produced in bulk. Since Darjeeling is seasonal, a period called, "peak quality time" is of utmost importance. Teas produced during this time is known to have the best quality. During this time, most of the tea gardens focus on producing quality black teas rather than Darjeeling Green Teas. But we also cannot avoid the fact that a few tea gardens produce Darjeeling Green Tea during peak quality time as well, such as Arya Tea Estate which has exceptional quality with greater health benefits got from Green Tea. Do check out the teas which were produced during quality time.

Info about Darjeeling Green Tea

As it is the case of black, oolong and white, Darjeeling Green Tea is produced from the same plant Camellia sinensis. The only difference is in it's manufacturing process. White and Darjeeling Green Tea varieties are not fermented or oxidized. Most of Darjeeling Green teas are produced during lesser quality time to cope up with the production and sale when the quality is down. But some tea gardens have come ahead and started producing excellent quality Darjeeling Green Tea varieties during quality time as well as we have one of them.

Darjeeling Green Tea is mostly made with the chinery tea plant but thats changing due to the evolving market and the demand for it. Unlike the Japanese and the Chinese Green Teas, Darjeeling Green tea is quite different. It now involves the use of various tea cultivars which give rise to different tea flavors. For instance, Arya produces a special Darjeeling green tea called "Arya Emerald" which is in fact not made from chinery tea bush, but from AV2 cultivar.

A study published by Journal of Food Science found that Darjeeling Green Tea had the highest level of catechins and theaflavins among other teas that were tested. These flavonoids and antioxidants found in Darjeeling Green Tea are supposed to fight and inhibit various diseases. All, whether black, oolong, green or white teas contain antioxidant properties beneficial for the health. Do also check out our range of Darjeeling Tea from various seasons.
