Tumsong Chiabari
Tumsong Chiabari
The first chiabari garden was established in 1916. The family owned, professionally managed chiabari group is now into its 6th generation and owns seventeen estates in Darjeeling. Collectively the group is the largest producer of organic Darjeeling teas, both in terms of quantity & quality. The Tumsong Chiabari Tea Retreat Group’s state-of-the-art modernizations, its vast infrastructure, & their flexibility to change & innovate have given them a complete edge over others.
The history of tea dates back to 2737 BC. There was a legend that once a Chinese Emperor Shen Nong, tried infusing some tree leaves that blew into the water that he was drinking which accidentally was created by his servant first, the tree being “Camellia sinensis”, & the result that followed is now what we call as tea. In addition, the Tumsong Chiabari faces the highest Himalayan ranges & this puts it directly in the path of constant cold breeze, which makes the plant grow gradually and gives them time to saturate their leaves with the special muscatel flavor of its exotic teas. The garden is also 100% bio-organic.
Staying up close with nature at its best, with stunning and breathtaking views, that old world charm of a wooden bungalow, it’s an experience best to savour with a tea cup in hand
