Darjeeling Whole Leaf Black & Green Tea – Combo Pack, 100 g Each | Cupo

One 100 g pouch of Darjeeling whole leaf black tea and one of whole leaf green, 200 g in total. The black is full enough to carry a morning chai; the green is delicate enough to drink plain in the afternoon. It is the sensible combination for a household that cannot agree on a single tea, or for anyone who wants both moods covered in one order.

Key Features

• Two types in one order: 100 g black and 100 g green
• Whole leaf throughout, free of the dust that fills most grocery boxes
• Black: muscatel, brisk, holds up to milk and spice
• Green: floral and light, best drunk plain
• Single-origin Darjeeling in both pouches

How to Brew

Brew the black just off the boil for three to four minutes. Brew the green at about 80°C for two to three minutes. Using the same kettle temperature for both is the usual mistake and makes the green taste bitter.

Product Details

• Net quantity: 2 x 100 g, 200 g total
• Contents: one pouch black tea, one pouch green tea
• Type: whole leaf loose tea
• Storage: store the two separately in airtight containers so aromas do not mix

Good to Know

• The green pouch will fade faster once opened, so start with the black if you drink slowly
• Cup colour differs sharply between the two; that is expected, not a defect
• Neither tea is flavoured or blended with anything else

FAQs

Which one should I use for chai?

The black. Brew it strong before adding milk and spices so the tea still comes through.

Can I mix the two together?

You can, but they want different water temperatures, so the result is usually a compromise. The trio pack includes a ready black-green blend if that is what you are after.

Is this a good gift?

Yes. Two sealed pouches covering both styles makes an easy gift for someone whose tea preference you do not know.

How much tea is this in cups?

Around 40 to 50 cups from each pouch, so 80 to 100 in total.
