Darjeeling Tea Garden Women Tea Pluckers

Women tea pluckers in Darjeeling taking a breat for food and water during their tea plucking rounds. During this little breaks, they open their little food bags and share the food with each other, gossipping and keeping themselves happy. Its a great feeling to see them – how happy they are in their own world of everyday tea life.

Second Flush 2011 Darjeeling Teas from Singbulli entered

Its peak Second Flush quality time at Singbulli Tea Estate. I had sampled about 15 various grade Second Flush 2011 Darjeeling tea samples from Singbulli and like First Flush, a battle raged in my mind – whether to purchase all of the teas which I liked. And guess what, I had to buy these 4 invoices from Singbulli Tea Estate. I just didn’t want to compromise these teas with others because once a particular tea is gone, its gone forever. And keeping in mind the quality time and the quality it possesses I bought it. 4 invoices comprising of 400+ kgs of Second Flush 2011 Darjeeling Teas from Singbulli entered today!

The recent Singbulli clonal which I bought during the First Flush went out of stock within a span of less than 3 months and I believe that tea lovers loved it. I hope you all will like this line of selection as well.

Will be buying some more of Second Flush 2011 Darjeeling Teas shortly. In the meantime, I will do the hardwork, you can relax and sip on to it later :)

Thanks to all tea lovers who bought from us and thanks for making us move forward!!

Darjeeling Tea people during the 1880s

Posted this photo on flickr sometime ago, wanted to share it here. Really couldn’t find the person who took the shot, but all credits to him/her. Notice the tea chests some of the people are resting on! The person standing in the middle with the black gown kind of attire seems very much like a Tibetan dress.

Darjeeling Tea Pickers during the 1880s

I just imagine sometimes how it might have been then during those early days of Darjeeling Tea production.
