Steintahl (sp?) Darjeeling

Tea gurus,



Just last week I experienced this wonderful tea with a German name for the Darjeeling estate. Just checking here if the price of $44.50 CND for 100grams was right. If so, it's the most expensive Darjeeling I've ever tasted. The small pot went for 6 bucks. Anywhere else to get this tea cheaper?



Thanks.



John


The correct spelling is "Steinthal". Googling this will provide several suppliers, one of which was offering 100gm for 7.8 euros.

Seems that this tea plantation has been founded by a German 120 Years ago

First Flush Steinthal is sold at EUR 7.10 per

100g (less than $10). JB

Any links to suppliers in US?

Thanks.

Don't think so. The only chance is doing mail order, would still be cheaper than the $42 you are paying.

Maybe I was wrong: even Starbucks seem to have some stock of the Steinthal Darjeelings, see

That's what I meant .. Anyone know of any mail-order company selling Steinthal tea?

Starbucks doesn't do mail orders ..
