LongeCity - Had A Cold, No Darjeeling In House

Only a few can appreciate the severity of the problem. Of course, I had Pu-erh tea, green and herbal teas, another black tea, dried tangerine peel, fresh ginger, and honey, but I had no Darjeeling. Darjeeling is unusual in that it is a black tea made from Camelia sinensis sinensis instead of Camelia sinensis assamica.* This makes it low in acid.

Eventually I got some Twinnings Darjeeling and their Prince of Wales tea. In spite of this I think that a red Indian tea finally helped cured my cough.

*Auto-correct changed "sinensis" to "saneness."

So not true.
