Hi, green teas from Darjeeling somtimes have the abbreviation KGFOP. What does it mean? I know P, OP, FOP and GFOP, but what is the K for?

Thanks, Martin

Martin:

KGFOP just indicate it is green tea. But this word K is not a official grading word. Some tea estates Use K. Otherwise most of the estates say Green tea STGFOP. I just bought some KGFOP green tea.

I gave your love to Calcutta and she told me- she miss you -): I am going back to Dhaka next week and my trip here was 100% successful. So many things to talk about. I got the chance to meet the top tea related people from India- from tea company,s CEO to 40+years old experienced tea tasters. Great experience. I have learned a lot about tea which will provides some fresh information to my book. Today I have been visited India,s one of the most mordern tea processing factory and tasting room. Having great time. I will share everything when I will go back to Bangladesh. I miss posting with you guys.
