The prestigious Castleton Tea Estate, known around the world for its fragrant black tea

Founded in 1865, located in the South Kurseong area. Castleton Tea Estate gets its name from the circular castle-like building that once stood on the site. The tea produced by this tea plantation, which has set world records at auction many times, continues to fascinate tea lovers around the world. At an altitude of 1,463m, most of the tea fields spread on south-facing slopes, and even today, when other tea gardens are cultivating hybrid varieties, low-growing Chinese varieties are planted. The parent company, which has many famous tea gardens, selects a particularly talented person to be the manager of this tea garden, and has a policy of making only high-quality tea under strict control. It is a tea garden that always delivers the highest quality tea to us.

A fragrance nurtured by the Himalayas, Darjeeling

Darjeeling tea is known as one of the world's three major black teas, and is called "the champagne of black tea" due to its delicate and strong aroma. Even if you don't like black tea, it's a famous production area. Darjeeling has three distinct quality seasons: spring, summer and autumn. The second flush, picked from the end of May to June, is full of rich, full-bodied flavors and aromas in the summer sun. Some high-quality brands have a sweet scent that spreads in the back of the throat, which is unique to Darjeeling and is called muscatel flavor (musk).
