Story

Tucked away in the misty Rung Bong valley near the scenic town of Mirik, Turzum Tea Estate traces its origins to the 1860s. Established alongside its sister garden Sungma, the two were merged after the devastating earthquake of 1934, with Turzum emerging as the primary centre of operations and laying the foundation for its enduring legacy.

Over the decades, the estate passed through the stewardship of several notable families, beginning with the Jhunjhunwalas in the late 1950s, followed by the Jindals in the 1970s. Today, it flourishes under the Jayshree Group, which oversees a portfolio of renowned estates across Darjeeling and Assam. Spread across elevations of 1100 to 1700 metres, Turzum’s landscape is shaped by cool mists, lush slopes, and serene surroundings. Its name, ‘Taru Zum’, drawn from the local dialect, refers to a traditional weekly market, a nod to the vibrant community life that once pulsed through the region.

Renowned for its seasonal harvests, Turzum’s Summer teas are particularly celebrated for their refinement and consistency. This Clonal Black captures the character of the season in a full-bodied, aromatic cup, where honeyed stone fruits meet gentle nuttiness and a distinctive musky finish.

YOU ASKED WE ANSWERED

What is Summer Clonal Black Tea?

It’s a black tea crafted during the summer harvest (typically June–July) from specially selected clonal cultivars. These are propagated for their desirable traits — like fuller body, unique aromas, and richer flavor.

What does this tea taste like?

Summer Clonal Black Teas are bold and expressive. Expect a full-bodied cup with mellow sweetness, brisk structure, and notes that may range from stone-fruity and woody to lightly nutty — depending on the cultivar and terroir.

Does this tea contain caffeine?

Yes, like all black teas made from the Camellia sinensis plant, this tea contains caffeine — typically at moderate levels — making it a great pick-me-up for mornings or early afternoons.

How is a Clonal tea different from a Chinary tea?

Clonal and Chinary teas differ primarily in the plant type and cup character.

Clonal teas are made from specially selected cuttings (or ""clones"") of high-performing tea bushes. These are propagated for specific traits — such as fuller body, unique aroma, or higher yield — and often produce more consistent, richly flavored cups.

Chinary teas, on the other hand, come from seed-grown, heritage China bushes. They tend to be more multi-layered and complex, with floral, citrusy, or brisk notes that can vary more from season to season or the altitide of the section from where the tea leaves were plucked.

Can I add milk and sugar?

We recommend drinking this tea plain to appreciate its nuanced flavors. That said, taste is personal — feel free to experiment and enjoy it however you prefer.

Is this tea suitable for those who prefer a milder cup?

While Summer Clonal Black teas are naturally fuller-bodied, this particular cup offers a mellow, well-rounded profile with soft fruit and nutty notes — making it enjoyable even for those who prefer a milder, less astringent black tea.

Best enjoyed plain to appreciate its layered subtlety.

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.
