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..
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.
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.

The young shoots are carefully plucked by hand from Clonal shrubs and immediately steamed, gently rolled and dried. The organically grown tea is now ready to be brewed and to unfold its noble class. The open, wiry leaf is rather atypical for Assam teas, and has a matt, light green iridescent colour. This is a beautiful, fresh green tea that remains faithful to its Assam character..
With a heavy heart and after many successful years, we now had to say goodbye to our Antu Valley in order to be able to offer you an organically grown variety. This tea from the Guranse Tea Estate is a worthy successor and cultivated at altitudes of up to 2,100 m. The leaf is rolled somewhat tighter, the colour dark green with silvery tips. The characteristic taste of the precursor is even more expressive in this variety. Mild and smooth with a delicate grassy flavour which reminds of Japanese teas. A gentle character with lively facets..
