After the foundation of the garden in 1861, Ambootia firmly established its name in Darjeeling throughout the following decades. In 1987, after the takeover and reorganisation by the current owner, the garden moved up into the first league and has now been producing organically cultivated teas for more than 20 years. The estate covers an area of almost 1,000 hectares with 350 of them covered by tea. Ambootia literally means “place of the mango trees”. Multi-faceted spring harvest, nicely flowery and grassy with a truly well-balanced, full body.
Behold this organic Pu-Erh composition! Inspired by a Mojito, the Brazilian long drink with refreshing mint and juicy limes, it will definitely accompany you on your summer holiday. A handful of green coffee beans provides the extra kick, while liquorice roots balance the sweetness perfectly.
Located in the Moran district in north-eastern Assam, the Hatimara estate is one of the few that uses exclusively cloned bushes. The plants are on average 45 years old, which is quite young for tea shrubs. To achieve this, the best cultivars available in the tea world were used, including TV1-22, S3A3 and T3A3, P126A as well as N436. Year after year, teas of intense color, aroma and flavor are created through a separate development process. Our leaf quality is particularly fine and wiry with many delicate tips, a bright copper-red cup and a fully aromatic, malty flavor with a hint of saffron.
A classical Assam from the second plucking period from one of the top tea estates of the region. For almost 100 years now, excellent teas have been produced here, just like our quality with its wiry, colorful leaf and the strong and spicy flavor with a rich, malty character. A real delicacy, either drunk pure or with Kluntje (rock sugar) and cream, like in Eastern Frisia. Should definitely form part of any upscale tea assortment.
A nicely priced consumer quality tea for daily use. We blend this Assam leaf blend in our facilities using select Assam qualities chosen from different tea estates in the country of origin. The infusion of these black, well-processed leaves with light tips is strong and dark and has an earthy, spicy taste and a malty note. The scent is spicy and strong.
