    My thoughts were to go cheap to see if you like the basic flavour.

    For instance, I think Lapsang Souchong is spitteroutable shit at any price.

    However, by all means start at the top for Darjeeling. Just don't blame the Justers if that plan goes wrong for you.

    I'm enjoying another cup of Lapsang! So what tea do you like to drinK Justin?

    As for starting at the top, I brought back a large quantity of top-quality Darjeeling loose leaf tea from an estate I visited in Darjeeling.

    I'm most jealous Barry! Enjoy

    Darjeeling is indeed the champagne of teas. One of my favourite treats is first or second flush Darjeeling with scones, jam and cream, in one of my favourite Cotswold cafes ...
