In 1852, Steinthal was founded by the German priest Joachim Stoelke as the first tea garden in Darjeeling. It is very popular particularly in Europe, not only due to its history but also thanks to the excellent qualities which have been produced there over the years. Steinthal is probably the only tea garden in Darjeeling which still cultivates 100% China plants. This is wonderfully reflected by the nicely worked, slightly twisted Sinensis leaf. The cup is full-bodied with a muscatel flavour and the infusion has a delicately flowery 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 tea garden Monteviot produces not only excellent qualities during the first picking period, but also wonderful second flush qualities. This finely worked broken tea from organic cultivation was produced following traditional methods and delights us with a full-bodied, strong cup with a slightly spicy aftertaste. Perfect for tea lovers who are looking for a typical, ripe, summer Darjeeling!
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..
Singell is one of the oldest tea plantations among the approximately 87 tea gardens in Darjeeling. The plantation has been producing teas from controlled organic cultivation since the mid-80s. The infusion has the bright bronze colour typical of Darjeeling teas from the second plucking period. The regular, short leaf is processed very carefully and has many silvery tips. The full and very aromatic second flush fascinates with its soft and velvety muscatel flavour..
