Nilgiri Tea: The Queen of Hill Stations

Introduction to Nilgiri

Nestled in the lush, mist-covered hills of Southern India, Nilgiri is often referred to as the "Queen of Hill Stations." The landscape of Nilgiri, with elevations ranging from 1,000 to 2,634 meters, creates the perfect environment for growing exceptional tea. With an average rainfall of 1,500mm annually, this area enjoys optimal conditions for producing some of the finest teas in the world.

Unique Growing Conditions

The high-altitude terroir, combined with ample rainfall and moderate temperatures, contributes to the distinctive flavor profile of Nilgiri teas. The region’s unique climate produces teas that are not only fragrant but also have a refreshing briskness that is unmatched.

A Flavor Like No Other

Nilgiri tea is renowned for its elegant flavor, fragrance, and briskness, making it a truly unique tea. These teas are celebrated for their bright, aromatic profile, often described as floral, with a delightful fruity sweetness and a clean finish. Whether you prefer your tea as a morning pick-me-up or a midday refreshment, Nilgiri tea offers a taste that is both lively and satisfying.

Orthodox and CTC Varieties

Most Nilgiri teas are grown at higher elevations and are processed in the orthodox style, which preserves the delicate flavor and aroma of the leaves. However, for those who enjoy a stronger, more robust cup, the CTC (Crush, Tear, Curl) variety is produced on tea estates at lower altitudes. Both varieties offer the signature briskness and fragrance, but with distinct differences in body and strength.

Why Choose Nilgiri Tea?

If you’re someone who appreciates a tea with a fragrant bouquet, a good body, and a superlative flavor, Nilgiri tea is the perfect choice. The combination of fragrance and briskness makes Nilgiri a tea that stands apart from others – a tea experience unlike any other, which can only be found in this special part of the world.
