In memory of his prematurely deceased daughter Margaret, who had loved this garden very much, the proprietor Mr. Bagdon gave her name to the plantation in the early 1930s. Plants of the Chinese type Thea Sinensis are almost exclusively cultivated on this plantation. The slow growth of the shrubs at the cool, higher altitude of the Himalaya forms the basis for high-grade and fully aromatic qualities! A sparkling, fully aromatic tea from the beginning of the second flush period with a full amber-coloured cup. The bouquet is aromatic, spicy and a bit sweet.
For years now, this small plantation located in the south of Darjeeling has been producing first quality teas that are known all over the world. This tea garden is a classic for connoisseurs and lovers of excellent second flush tea! The shining amber coloured cup is absolutely beautiful! The dark and excellent Sinensis leaf and the silvery tips show the careful plucking by excellently trained personnel. The taste is aromatic, elegant and soft with a mild and discreet flower.
Also called "Tua Chua-Lai Chau" in Vietnamese. The leaves of this rarity come from the old "Tuyet San" tea trees which grow up to 10 meters in height in the mountain ranges in Northern Vietnam at an altitude of about 1.500 meters. The mountain tops are covered in thick clouds almost throughout the year. These practically ideal growing conditions guarantee a constant, very high quality. This tea captivates with a smoky-green, beautifully curled leaf. The brewed olive-green leaf discloses the careful processing of the whole leaf, and the golden-colored cup has a full, slightly sweet taste with a fresh, grass-like note. A classical, lovely, gentleman's tea.
The tea garden "Harmutty" was founded in 1870 and has been producing very good Assam qualities ever since. Our Assam Harmutty has been generated from the 3rd dool (processing stage after rolling) and convinces by an extraordinarily pretty and regular leaf, which is dark and has lots of golden-brown tips. The taste is full, very balanced and has a moderately spicy and malty character. The cup is a shiny, deep copper colour; the flavour is malty and strong.
During the past few years, the Nagri Farm Plantation, which lies in the Rongbong Valley, has acquired an outstanding reputation for the production of green tea. The plantation is spread over an area of 571 hectares at altitudes of up to 1,400 m and has a yearly production of around 190,000 kg of tea. The bushes grow slowly in the cool mountain air and the aroma and leaves can develop perfectly in these ideal conditions. The regular green leaf has some silvery tips and presents its classical, round and soft character in a lemon-yellow cup.
The Marybong Tea Estate is situated in the East Valley. This rather small garden produces top qualities every year on a cultivated area of approximately 285 hectares, at altitudes between 1,200 and 1,970 m. This is a well-balanced, aromatically sweet plucking featuring a certain "body" with some strength. The leaves are smaller, fine, and dark with green parts and bright tips. The cup's colour is the typical light copper of a tea of the late first flush period.
Sir Albert Henry George Grey, Fourth Lord Grey and Canadian Governor General between 1904 and 1911, was an engaged and modern-minded statesman. Unfortunately, decaffeinated teas did not exist back then, but we are sure he would have liked our mild variation of the famous flavoured tea classic. Decaffeinated Sencha has been ennobled with a new, natural, highly aromatic bergamot flavouring of first quality.
DECAFFEINATED!!!
When the production methods and „know-how” for the production of classical Japanese teas was transferred to China some years ago, the demand for decaffeinated Sencha soon followed suit. This decaffeinated China Sencha will satisfy the desires of any green tea lover. Well-structured leaf, lemon-yellow in the cup, with a fruity, slightly tangy character and a mild and round bouquet.
DEACAFFEINATED!!!
This fragrant speciality from the province of Guangxi in the south of China is a classic. The traditional history of its production, which has hardly undergone any changes, is based on a small-leaf green tea, which is mixed with still damp osmanthus blossoms. Unlike jasmine tea, it is not sieved in order to remove the blossoms, so that the many remaining blossoms take on the colour of honey during the drying process. Accordingly, the infusion has a mild and fruity bouquet. The honey-yellow cup attracts temptingly with a mellow, slightly fruity taste and a spicy note of honey.
A new variety of the fine, decaffeinated tea for all lovers of this basis. It is characterised by a round, sweet orange flavour which is decorated with delicate orange blossoms.
