Story

Nestled in the picturesque Mirik Valley of Darjeeling, Seeyok tea estate boasts 406 hectares of breathtaking natural beauty and prime tea-growing conditions. Located at altitudes ranging from 3,000 to 6,000 feet above sea level, the estate lies in the shadow of the magnificent Mt. Kanchenjunga, close to the Indo-Nepalese border. Since its establishment in 1869, Seeyok has been celebrated for its traditional tea-making practices and commitment to quality. The predominantly Chinary tea bushes thrive at these elevations, producing a distinctive muscatel character during the second flush, a hallmark of Seeyok's exceptional teas.

Owned by the Mohan family, Seeyok tea estate is a part of Tea Promoters India, a portfolio of premium tea gardens. The family-run business now includes the third generation of the Mohan family, blending experience and youthful innovation. The estate spans 406 hectares, with tea planted on 154 hectares interspersed with lemongrass, neem, and other plants that nourish the soil and prevent erosion during monsoon rains. This harmonious blend of flora contributes to the estate’s lush, biodiverse environment, supporting an array of wildlife, including birds, boar, and deer, thus making Seeyok a paradise for both nature and tea lovers.

Seeyok is one of the oldest certified organic tea gardens in Darjeeling, having converted to organic farming in 1994. The estate's dedication to sustainable practices has earned it numerous awards and a reputation for producing high-quality teas. With a focus on the quality of life for its workforce, Seeyok has been a pioneer in the Fairtrade movement in the Himalayas. The garden's organic certification ensures that its teas are free from synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, preserving the rich, fertile terroir. As a result, Seeyok continues to deliver exceptional cups of tea, making it a revered gem in the Darjeeling tea industry.

YOU ASKED WE ANSWERED

What does 'Muscatel' mean in tea?

Muscatel' refers to a rare, naturally occurring flavor in some Darjeeling second flush teas—marked by fruity sweetness and a distinct aroma reminiscent of muscat grapes or Muscat wine.

It’s a prized characteristic, shaped by specific cultivars, terroir, and the timing of the summer harvest.

Who coined the term 'Muscatel'?

The term was coined in 1986 by iconic Darjeeling tea planter Mr. Arun Kumar Gomden.

He first identified this unique grape-like character in second flush Chinary teas and named it “Muscatel” after the Muscat grape, not musk. It marked a tea with soft, fruity depth and lingering finish unlike typical summer teas.

Which tea estate first produced Muscatel tea?

Castleton Tea Estate in Darjeeling’s Kurseong Valley was the first to craft a Muscatel tea in 1986.
A small 21 kg batch was auctioned at a record-breaking ₹1,460/kg—an unheard-of price at the time.

How does Muscatel tea taste?

Muscatel teas are full-bodied and aromatic with a signature grape-like fruitiness.

Expect notes of muscat grape, ripe stone fruits like peach or apricot, and a mellow sweetness. The cup is rich, slightly brisk, and finishes with a lingering floral or musky-sweet echo.

Does this tea contain caffeine?

Yes. Like all black teas from the Camellia sinensis plant, Muscatel teas naturally contain caffeine.

Summer harvests, with slightly longer oxidation, have moderate to high caffeine levels—typically around 40–60 mg per cup (180ml).

Can this tea be re-steeped?

Muscatel teas are best enjoyed in a single infusion, where their layered flavors and signature muscatel notes are most vibrant and expressive.

Are these teas sustainably sourced?

Yes! At Teabox, we are committed to sourcing teas from renowned estates that uphold ethical and sustainable practices. Our teas come from gardens that prioritize environmental responsibility and fair labor practices, ensuring both quality and social impact.

By choosing Teabox, you support a tea culture rooted in sustainability and care—for the land, the people, and your cup.
