History of Darjeeling Tea Gardens
Darjeeling tea is cultivated in the foothills of the Himalayas, in the Indian state of West Bengal. The unique terroir — high-altitude location, mists, and cool climate — creates ideal conditions for the slow growth of the tea bush, contributing to the accumulation of complex aromatic substances.
Interesting Fact
In the 19th century, the British brought tea bushes from China here. A special variety, Camellia sinensis var. sinensis, was developed here, adapting to local conditions. Today, Darjeeling holds protected geographical indication status, confirming its uniqueness and origin.
