Nestling in the foothills of the snow-covered Himalayan range, Darjeeling grows this exclusive tea at altitudes ranging from 600 to 2,000 meters. The cool and moist climate, the soil, the rainfall and the sloping terrain all combine to give Darjeeling its unique "Muscatel" flavour and exquisite bouquet.
The combination of natural factors that gives Darjeeling tea its unique distinction is not found anywhere else in the world, hence this finest and most delicately flavoured of all teas has over the years acquired the reputation of being the "Champagne of Teas."
