Story

Nestled along the mist-laden slopes of Kurseong at elevations between 4,500 and 5,200 feet, Giddapahar Tea Estate has been producing remarkable Darjeeling teas since 1881. Lovingly stewarded by generations of the Shaw family, the estate, whose name translates to ‘Eagle’s Mountain’, is celebrated for its century-old Chinary bushes and the distinctive character they bring to every harvest.

While Giddapahar has thoughtfully introduced select clonal cultivars over the years, its heritage Chinary sections remain the heart of the estate. These venerable bushes continue to produce its most expressive summer teas, shaped by mountain mists, cool breezes, and time-honoured craftsmanship.

This Summer Muscatel Black is a tribute to that enduring legacy. Harvested from mature Chinary bushes, it brings together vibrant muscat grape notes, ripe peach sweetness, gentle woody nuances, and a signature musky depth that lingers gracefully on the palate. Rich in character and crafted with care, it is a tea that reflects both the timeless spirit of Giddapahar and the unmistakable charm of a Darjeeling summer.

YOU ASKED WE ANSWERED

What does 'Muscatel' mean in tea?

Muscatel' refers to a rare, naturally occurring flavor in some Darjeeling second flush teas—marked by fruity sweetness and a distinct aroma reminiscent of muscat grapes or Muscat wine.

It’s a prized characteristic, shaped by specific cultivars, terroir, and the timing of the summer harvest.

Who coined the term 'Muscatel'?

The term was coined in 1986 by iconic Darjeeling tea planter Mr. Arun Kumar Gomden.

He first identified this unique grape-like character in second flush Chinary teas and named it “Muscatel” after the Muscat grape, not musk. It marked a tea with soft, fruity depth and lingering finish unlike typical summer teas.

Which tea estate first produced Muscatel tea?

Castleton Tea Estate in Darjeeling’s Kurseong Valley was the first to craft a Muscatel tea in 1986.
A small 21 kg batch was auctioned at a record-breaking ₹1,460/kg—an unheard-of price at the time.

How does Muscatel tea taste?

Muscatel teas are full-bodied and aromatic with a signature grape-like fruitiness.

Expect notes of muscat grape, ripe stone fruits like peach or apricot, and a mellow sweetness. The cup is rich, slightly brisk, and finishes with a lingering floral or musky-sweet echo.

Does this tea contain caffeine?

Yes. Like all black teas from the Camellia sinensis plant, Muscatel teas naturally contain caffeine.

Summer harvests, with slightly longer oxidation, have moderate to high caffeine levels—typically around 40–60 mg per cup (180ml).

Can this tea be re-steeped?

Muscatel teas are best enjoyed in a single infusion, where their layered flavors and signature muscatel notes are most vibrant and expressive.

Are these teas sustainably sourced?

Yes! At Teabox, we are committed to sourcing teas from renowned estates that uphold ethical and sustainable practices. Our teas come from gardens that prioritize environmental responsibility and fair labor practices, ensuring both quality and social impact.

By choosing Teabox, you support a tea culture rooted in sustainability and care—for the land, the people, and your cup.

Frequently Purchased

A nice special edition

Receiving this tea mere weeks after picking, I had high expectations and wasn’t disappointed in the taste. I did wish the smaller 50g was larger, esp. since instructions suggest using more product for the typical cup but I get that it’s presented as a premium product. As the pic shows, it brews up a bright golden yellow liquor with a fresh taste I enjoy in the evenings. I’ll just have to alternate with my other teas to make it last longer!

Lovely tea

I am enjoying these wonderful teas. As you can see in the photos…real tea leaves. Prefer mine with no milk or sugar, just as it comes, to sit relax and sip

Tops my list and my lips!

This is truly my favorite tea! I have at least 6 cups a day. It is flavorful and robust. I enjoy it with a little sweetener, although it is also delicious alone.

Tasty Tea

Great taste and affordable

Amazing flavours

Just started drinking this tea the trial pack packaging box it came in was beautiful I was excited to open it, so much tea to choose from am really enjoying the tea with just adding water haven’ tasted them all yet but your flavours are amazing and the aroma from the tea is so nice and drinking from the glass tea cup with infuser makes the experience perfect so glad it tells you how to make it and what you can add to enhance your liking.
I will definitely be buying again.

A proper cuppa.

I love the taste of both Autumn chinary and Summer Giddapahar black teas.
It is sooo nice to be drinking real tea again.

Enough to start your day with a positive energy.

Being a tea-lover I rely on black tea for their exotic taste each time. I've tired out so many different vendors but Teabox is different I must say. They delivers exactly the same as they promise unlike others.
When I pour the tea I prefer just to sit back and enjoy till the very last drop of it - nothing else! When I take the first sip, it comes with a refreshing punch and then with a nutty - fruity taste it leaves a mellow honey like sweetness in your mouth. You can't go wrong with this tea. It's perfect for the morning to start your day and the evening to end the day with a perfect note of happiness. Well done Teabox!

My favourite tea!

Currently my favourite tea (my palate is a bit fickle, but only loves extremely high quality first flush Darjeelings!), this is subtle, smooth, and elegant - just delicious!

Best tea I’ve ever had

I can’t go back to supermarket-bought teabags after drinking Teabox teas for over two years. I used to think I did not like Darjeeling teas until I tried Teabox’s Darjeelings, and now I am a convert. The teas are super flavorful and super fresh. Prices are reasonable and they even have sales (price reductions). Shipment is quick, especially considering that shipments are coming overseas from India. It’s such a delight to see the tea leaves unfurling in hot water, and not be left with just tea crumbs in the strainer. Their chais are also delicious!
