Tasting Notes
From the misty rolling gardens of the famous Glendale tea estate in the divine Nilgiri hills, we bring to you our Blue Mountain Nilgiri Green Tea. A rare, exotic, and unfermented green tea that is grown and harvested in the winter months. The lusciously long and slender leaves, with velvety shades of green, have a fresh aroma of sweet grass and greens. The light golden liquor has a splendid aroma and carries notes of fresh grass, with a hint of astringency. The aftertaste is characterised by a sweet, citrusy note that lingers on the palate. A mesmerising experience!

How are your teas packed?
After sourcing our teas directly from plantations within hours of harvest, we bring them to our state-of-the-art tea facility in New Delhi, India. The teas then go through rigorous rounds of cleaning, sorting, quality testing to remove any impurities/dust/foreign particles. Teas then pass through a final 10+ quality check points for leaf size, aroma, liquor, flavors etc. They are then vacuum-packaged in opaque aluminium-lined bags using sophisticated machinery. These vacuum-bags are then stored in a dehumidified, temperature-controlled warehouse which ensures that the teas remain garden-fresh and maintain their character. Upon receiving a consumer's order, we further pack the required quantity of tea in smaller vacuum-sealed packs which are boxed in the retail boxes and then sent over to our own delivery centers located in various parts of the world.
