Darjeeling Lopchu Golden Orange Pekoe Black

Probably the oldest and most standard of Darjeeling long leaf varieties, this never fails to please the pallet. A must for every tea connoisseur, and for those who are taking their first steps into the world of gourmet tea making !

Always underlying fruity notes.

I just love this tea .

I add milk and a very neutral honey to my Darjeelings to expand the profile a bit by letting the milk give it more structure and allowing the honey to bring out the bright notes a little more. Using a neutral honey is key, as many of the fancy honeys will mask the tea profile with their flower notes. That being said, this tea absolutely sings when the temperature falls to between warm and hot and even expands into different flavors at room temperature. Very impressive, the cacao and surprisingly mint really shine through. Golden is aptly named, as the tea feels golden in your mouth and the muscatel truly shines with Sauternes and earth carrying through the entire symphony of flavors.

This tea is so fresh and clear. I no longer want to spoil it with milk as the flavour is superb with no hint of bitterness.
What I used to drink can no longer be called tea!

I grew up thinking Orange Pekoe was a tea I didn't like.
I tried this one and discovered to my amazement, my wife is a genius!
6 stars if could, this tea is now my favourite too!

This tea is amazing! Beautiful aroma and flavor, no bitterness at all. One of my favorites!

When I received my tea I made a cup right away. The taste was fresh and I enjoyed the cup I made.

My favourite tea . Strong without any hint of bitterness. Absolutely love it .

I tried this tea as part of the trial pack. I didn't like the Earl Grey but that's a personal preference. The other teas in the trial pack were all very good, but the Darjeeling Lopchu Flowery Orange Pekoe was so good I immediately ordered a full pack. It is quite simply the best tea I have ever tasted and will make a regular order. So glad I discovered it!

Light yet full of rich flavor, this is the perfect companion for my evening tea or anytime I desire a refreshing and satisfying beverage. Crafted to delight the palate throughout the day.

I have been drinking Lopchu Golden Pekoe sourced from various vendors, but it was never better than the one from Teabox; it is amazing.

Nice smell & tasty. No dust in the last sip.

Very aromatic and every blend is delicious! A great gift for the tea drinkers in your life!

I’ve tried many, many brands of Black tea as I love the bold rich taste versus other teas. Teabox’s Kadak is my new favorite.

I have been drinking Lopchu Golden Orange Pekoe over 50 years.

As I had imagined. Very aromatic.

A good strong flavoured tea, good rounded taste

Very tasty & contented soothing cup, enjoy every time,

This has been a long-time family favourite, since the 1960's. All the remembered qualities have been retained. After becoming a regular customer of Teabox, I have also developed a liking for other teas, from Assam and the Nilgiris. Unfortunately, under the new discount policy of Teabox, I am forced to buy 500 gms of a particular tea in order to take advantage of the discount, which is disappointing. Kindly go through my shopping records, especially before 2020, to see my preference trends. Hope you can help me to obtain more of my preferred teas without having to order 500 gms of each.

A perfect beginning of a morning.

I drink several different teas, most from the the Assam region. But my go-to afternoon cup is the Orange Pekoe. It's a rich black tea that tastes great with milk. It reminds me of the comfort of drinking tea with my mother when I was a teenager. I can't promise it will remind you of YOUR mother, but you will find it a great traditional cup.
