This tea comes from the area where the finest teas in the world are grown-the district of Darjeeling in the Himalayan foothills. The high-altitude, rich soil and ideal weather contribute to the unique flavour and character of this rare coveted brew relished internationally. Grown exclusively in select 87 tea plantations, Darjeeling is popularly known as the 'Champagne of Teas' and is the first product from India to be granted protection under geographical indication (GI) in view of its uniqueness recognised worldwide.
