All the products
are packed in our specially designed boxes and fabric bags. We ensure
high quality in packaging and every care is taken to keep the aroma
intact. We also have a range of high quality Indian spices packed in
exclusive carved wooden boxes.
Each of the three
main tea producing regions of India--Darjeeling, Assam and
Nilgiri--produce teas having their own unique and distinct aroma and
taste.
Darjeeling
Darjeeling is
nestled on the peak of the Himalayan mountains in India. The tea is
grown at altitudes of 3000-5000 ft. Only the tender shoots are
handpicked, making them expensive to harvest. The most highly valued
tea in the world, Darjeeling tea is characteristic of its high flavor
and quality, truly called the 'Champagne of Tea'. As champagne is to
France, so Darjeeling Tea is to India.
Assam
On both sides of
the mighty Brahmaputra river, in the North-east of India, lie the
rolling plains of the world's largest tea growing area--Assam, the
birthplace of Indian tea. This tea produces top quality liquor with
body and strength and is a favorite with the tea drinker whose
preference lies in a good strong cup of tea.
Nilgiri
Nilgiri literally
means the blue mountains. It is the most spectacular mountain range in
South India. The tea gardens are situated at an elevation from 1,000 to
3,000 ft. Nilgiri teas are relatively mild and are famous for their
bright & brisk liquor and light & clean flavor.
