Darjeeling tea was a blend of tea originating from India on Earth. In 2376 Quark came to Ro Laren's office on Deep Space 9 with a cup of Darjeeling tea for her to sample. He claimed it was very expensive but was happy to give it to her as a gift, a token of his appreciation of her fine work organising the emergency evacuation of the station the night before. He had also hoped it might tempt her into agreeing to go to dinner with him, which she did, on the condition it was as friends. (DS9 novel: Avatar, Book Two)

  • This strong, full-bodied black tea comes from India's province of Darjeeling, in the foothills of the Himalayas. Darjeeling tea leaves are grown at about 7,000 feet and are considered one of India's finest.
  • In an unknown, alternate future timeframe, Jean-Luc Picard was not pleased with the tea served by Data's maid Jessel, asking her if she hadn't served Darjeeling instead of Earl Grey, a question she chose to ignore. (TNG: "All Good Things..." ) Questioning whether the tea was Earl Grey or Darjeeling would be considered a slur to the strength of the brew and quality of the tea and a serious question to the tea makers skill as Darjeeling's mild flavor and Earl Grey's bold taste could never be mistaken even by a casual tea drinker. It would mean Picard was stating, in his own way, that Jessel had not made a good cup of tea. In an early draft of the script for "Contagion" , Picard ordered Darjeeling tea, but this reference was changed, and became the first time he ever uttered: "tea, Earl Grey, hot."
