The Monteviot Garden is located in the southern Kurseongvalley of Darjeeling and was founded in 1856.
This quality is already blended in the country of origin from high quality garden teas. We selected teas from the medium and late first flush season, which are shipped directly to us. A medium-large, almost black leaf and a light brass colour of the infusion characterise this blend. The taste of this first flush blend leaves a fresh, slightly spicy impression with a little tartness, which is also reflected in the scent. Always a treat!
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 subtle flower..
This tea has curly leaves with green portions, which is typical of the Souchong rolled leaf processing and is mainly found in northern Indian teas. Its very strong flavour will highly please Darjeeling admirers – even in case of poor water quality. The Sungma Tea Estate is located in the Rungbong Valley. Here, tea plants are cultivated at altitudes of between 1,420 and 2,360 m above sea level on an area of approximately 281 hectares. This dark and light green Broken Pekoe Souchong delights us with its reddish gold shimmering colour. It has a strong and spicy taste and scent..
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 muscatel note. The flowery bouquet reflects the taste. It is worth an affaire!
The Happy Valley Tea Estate is located approximately 3 km from the city of Darjeeling. Situated at altitudes of up to 2,100 m, this tea garden covers an area of 111 hectares. From April to November, visitors have the opportunity to observe the tea leaf plucking process and learn about tea processing. We offer a pure-grade blend of second flush leaf tea, specially blended for us in the country of origin. It is highly aromatic with a full and vibrant cup. The leaves are medium-sized and regular, with bright tips.
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, which again and again achieves the highest bids in the tea trade. This tea is of the finest quality, with many tips and the typical flowery, nutty flavour and taste of Darjeeling teas..
After the foundation of the garden in 1861, Ambootia firmly established its name in Darjeeling throughout the following decades. In 1987, after the takeover and reorganisation by the current owner, the garden moved up into the first league and has now been producing organically cultivated teas for more than 20 years. The estate covers an area of almost 1,000 hectares with 350 of them covered by tea. Ambootia literally means “place of the mango trees”. Multi-faceted spring harvest, nicely flowery and grassy with a truly well-balanced, full body.
