Tea at its Best

Was looking out for the sweet flavour alongwith each sip of tea ( no sugar added, just one teaspoon of milk) and i have found it. Its Muscatel. The strong tea flavour mellows as you switch to Darjeeling tea. This was a very good buy. Now to try different tea estates fir Muscatel variations. Experiment continues.

Jungpana Exotic Summer Muscatel Black Tea Review

Perfect blend with nice aroma.
Good Darjeeling tea.

BEAUTIFUL, JUST BEAUTIFUL!

Wonderful aroma, spent more time smelling the tea because of the distinct caramel notes. The grape like taste lingers in the mouth, one of the best muscatel out there in the market!
(PS: would be a bestseller if the price was slightly lower)
Love you Teabox!

My favorite muscatel

Each year I look forward to the Darjeeling second flush muscatel teas. Jungpana is my favorite this year. It’s strong aroma and the distinctive muscatel is unmistakable. While in many other teas one needs to look at hints of muscatel, Jungpana exudes it with every sip.

Very unique flavour, a new

Very unique flavour, a new for me so far as tea is concerned. Taste is best when steeped for 3 minutes and taken without any suger or honey.

Unique flavor

I received this tea as a sample and I am drinking it as I write this review. It is unlike any other black tea I've tasted—a cross between Darjeeling and something else, which I can't quite pinpoint. It is slightly aromatic and pleasing throughout. Don't add anything to it (but I don't for any good tea).
I plan on ordering again.

excellent muscatel

I don't usually love muscatels, but this one is great. I got it as a sample and may just order it next time.

Good but not the best in taste

I was drinking Castleton Summer Muscatel Black for the past few months and was really enjoying it. I decided to try this tea because I was looking for an organic Summer Muscatel option. My first few brews were very disappointing as they turned out to be bitter. Now that I've reduced the brewing time to 3 min and tried a bit lower temperature water, the brew is good. But I am going to continue searching for a great Summer Muscatel Black that is organic.
