Light texture and sweet aftertaste

Nilgiri, meaning 'Blue Mountain' in the local language, is one of the famous tea-producing areas located in South India. Plucked in the quality season in this popular tea estate, the sepia coloured tea brewed from slightly twisted leaves tastes mild and sweet fitting everyone. Since the tea's fine taste lasts long, you can relax and enjoy the tea by making a large quantity at a time. Iced tea on a hot day is also a perfect idea!

Chamraj Tea Estate is one of the tea estates where we look forward to sampling Nilgiri every year. It is a tea estate that delivers samples of well-balanced brands with stable quality, not brands with strong individuality. This year, we bought 2 lots of great tea called OPAL and specialty tea called Golden Tips. Compared to the normal FOP type, this OPAL has a large dark brown leaf with less twist. Tea leaves also contain stem parts. It is a brand with a refreshing taste that disappears quickly while leaving a sweet aftertaste in your mouth. On the rocks iced tea is recommended. Depending on the brewing time and the amount of tea leaves, the tea liquid tends to be cloudy due to the cream down. You can make iced tea with a pleasant sharpness without making it cloudy or failing. It is a brand that can easily make clear iced tea in hot summer. Please try.

Nilgiri, also known as the Blue Mountain

Blue-purple Kurinji flowers cover the entire mountain.

Nilgiri means "blue mountain" in the local language. The reason for this is said to be that once every 12 years, the Kurinji flowers bloom all at once here, making the mountains look blue. It seems that the last time it bloomed all at once in 2018, so it is said that the next flowering will be seen in 2030.
