Tea varies widely in its acidity. It is easy to assess the acidity of tea by taste--the more sour it tastes, the more acidic it is. Strong black teas (often described as tannic) tend to be more acidic, but there are some lighter teas that are acidic as well. Sometimes the sour taste can be masked by bitterness in strongly bitter teas.

It is hard to generalize about all Darjeeling tea, because it can be diverse, but Darjeeling tea tends to be gentler than other black teas. If you are concerned about teas being harsh on the stomach, Darjeeling tea might be a good choice, especially if you can get your hands on some high-quality loose Darjeeling like a Darjeeling first flush. First flush Darjeeling tends to be lighter than almost any other kind of black tea.

The Darjeeling district of India also produces a few green teas and oolong teas. Although these are unusual and can be hard to locate, they might offer some less-acidic Darjeeling teas.

If you are concerned about the acidity of tea and want to look for some smoother teas, you might want to look at oolong tea. Many oolong teas are gently roasted, which can take the edge off the tea and make it easier on the stomach.
