In the tasting room of Chamraj Tea Estate. Various kinds of specialty teas are lined up. The brand on the far left is the white tea that we are introducing this time.

Chamraj Tea Estate that we buy every year at our store. And although it's not every year, I've been gradually introducing the specialty teas of Chamraj Tea Estate. Following the handmade tea in 2018 and the golden chip in 2021, we bought white tea in 2022. The olive green leaves covered with downy hair are all core buds. It takes 10 days to carefully and patiently pick and make tea. After a lot of daunting work, it arrived at our hands. Chamraj Tea Estate White Tea, which I will introduce this time, is classified as black tea in terms of the manufacturing process, not "white tea" as a classification of Chinese tea, even though it is white tea. It doesn't have the deep taste of black tea's oxidative fermentation at all, and it has a gentle taste with a refreshing scent that feels bluish and a faint sweetness of tea. By all means, make tea in a glass teapot and enjoy a relaxing and quiet tea time while watching the core buds slowly floating and sinking in the hot water.

Chamraj Tea Estate

Chamraj Tea Estate factory.

It is also known as one of the highest tea estates in the world.

In 1922, Chamraj Tea Estate started its history. Located at an altitude of over 2,000 meters, this tea garden continues to produce high-quality, sweet, flowery, fragrant nilgiri tea that is unique to high-grown tea. There is Korakunda tea estate as a sister tea estate. Since both of them produce tea leaves of reliable quality, they are known as one of the representative tea estates of Nilgiri in Japan. It is also known as one of the highest tea estates in the world. India's tea esates were among the first to introduce a fair trade system. We are focusing on the welfare of the staff working at the tea estate and their families, and we are also focusing on enhancing the school education for the children of the tea estate staff, including higher education.

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.
