     Darjeeling teas are grown in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains in northeastern India between Nepal and Bhutan. Connoisseurs call Darjeeling tea, with its characteristic dryness and muscat overtones, the "Champagne of Teas." A really good Darjeeling is a special treat which can be enjoyed any time of day.
