Hello!
Referring to my posting on 'The English Way of drinking Tea', I am quite curious about those black Darjeeling teas, which are meant to be drunk with milk. I for myself only know Darjeeling teas (also Second-Flushs) which look like Oolong teas with a great amount of green leaves. I think, Darjeelings, which could be drunk with milk, should be full-fermented, at least being dark enough (those teas I mentioned are also in the taste more like Oolong-teas with a more light yellow-brownish colour).
Besides, I'm always interested in good quality Darjeelings at all. I truly like the freshness and aroma of Darjeeling tea, but I never found a great difference between first or second flush. Esp. I never tasted a fuity and nutlike Mucatell-Flavour which is often mentioned with the typical Darjeelig taste.
So, what Darjeelings (Estates, Brands) do you prefer, how do you make it (infusion time, gramms per litre) and do you drink your Darjeeling with or without milk?
I'm quite curious!
