Finally, there are the Darjeeling Third Flush teas, more commonly called “Autumn Flush” or even “Autumnal,” known for their large leaves. Careful tending of the garden after the Second Flush is a must, whether or not a Monsoon Flush harvest is attempted, to prepare for this flush. Weeding is essential as is a good fertilizing since the tea plants will do most of their growth during Autumn. They aren’t always available (weather conditions have to be just right). In mid-September the monsoon season ends and the tea plants resume growth until October and November when they are harvested. The leaves produce a very dark leaf that steeps up a full-bodied and naturally fruity flavoured tea (the buds contain more sap than normal due to slower growth). The ones that do make it to market typically have a coppery coloured liquid and a nice round taste, quite suitable as a breakfast tea and stronger than the Second Flush
