    KNOW YOUR TEA

    Lying amidst the lush mountain streams, surrounded by forests, and usually covered in mist, the Jungpana tea estate is one of the picturesque gardens in Darjeeling. Located at 4500 feet in Kurseong, we have travelled to this estate and procured the fresh Jungpana Summer Chinary Black of this 2021 summer harvest. This fine Indian single estate tea is medium-bodied, extremely fruity, with delectable notes of apricots and peaches. When the experience arrives in the middle, subtly musky hints play on the palate. The aftertaste is chestnuts. A memorable experience of Indian summer flush from this reputed tea estate.
