Tea for You - Tea Business

This plantation was co-founded by a German missionary and manufactures leaf teas of excellent quality, which grow at altitudes of between 980 and 2,050 m on 257 hectares of pure cultivation area. We are proud to offer this excellent quality: this tea presents a regular Sinensis leaf with silvery tips. This quality does not only enchant us by its bright, amber-coloured cup but surprises us with its highly aromatic and spicy taste with a very pleasant mustacel note. The flowery bouquet reflects the taste. It is worth an affaire!

This very fine tea is from one of the highest plantations in Darjeeling and was the first plantation ever to be awarded a gold medal for excellent product quality in 1884. Ideal climatic conditions favour the above-average produce. This tea is of the finest quality, with many tips and the typical flowery, nutty flavour and taste of Darjeeling teas.

Apart from top tea qualities, oranges, cloves and cardamom are also cultivated on this plantation and sold on local market. The tea garden was founded in 1871 and named after the river, which forms the border on one side of the plantation. At altitudes of up to 1,400 m above sea level pure China bushes, but also hybrids of different tea bushes are cultivated. Summerly temperatures of up to 30°C are one reason for this excellent quality of a second flush tea which has ripened to perfection. A wonderfully crafted leaf with silvery tips is crowned by a flowery bouquet and a distinct muscatel flavour.

PREMIUM!!!

As the demand for competitively priced consumer qualities is more present than ever, we are introducing this blend, which offers excellent value for money. All teas forming part of this blend were acquired towards the end of the season and show a very cleanly worked leaf with some green tips. The clear, medium amber colour of the cup yields a fresh, slightly spicy and grassy taste, which will guarantee successful sales.
