Liza Hill is located just 14 km east of the centre of Darjeeling and, looking closely, it is not really an independent tea garden, but rather a premium section of the Risheehat plantation. Approximately 60% of the tea shrubs are China plants and 20% each are Assam hybrids and other clonals. Some of the very finest black and green teas as well as a rare few, high quality semi-oxidized qualities are grown here on the many steep slopes. In particular, the flowery, delicately aromatic and spicy Oolongs are much sought after and therefore achieve highest prices in the auctions.

Steinthal not only produces excellent first and second flush qualities, it also impresses with its highly sought-after green teas. The exceptional altitudes, which offer a breath-taking view of the Himalaya, ensure ideal preconditions for producing excellent green teas. The olive-green leaf shows some tips and the citrus-coloured cup shines brightly with fresh, mellow flavours. The typically grassy tanginess remains very subtly in the background.

According to legend, this tea garden was founded in 1885 by Buddhist monks and originally carried the name “Sidrabong”. Today, the plantation is called Arya and produces almost exclusively organic varieties of first class at altitudes of 850 to 1,800 m. Starting in the city of Darjeeling, an extremely narrow and winding road that is daring even for experienced drivers leads down to the factory. A very nicely worked green tea with a well-scented infusion and a highly aromatic note.
