Description:
Discover a hidden gem from the foothills of the Himalayas. While the Dooars region lies nestled between the world-famous tea hubs of Darjeeling and Assam, it remains one of India's best-kept secrets.
We believe the Dooars' reputation is vastly underrated, and our Organic Putharjhora Imperial White is the perfect proof. Produced in the esteemed Putharjhora garden, this tea is a testament to the incredible quality and artisanal skill emerging from this lush, emerald-green landscape.
The visual beauty of this tea is the first thing you will notice. The leaves are remarkably open, displaying a vibrant, green-patched palette interspersed with delicate, velvety silver tips. This appearance is a hallmark of "Imperial" quality, indicating that only the most supple buds and youngest leaves are selected during harvest.
Upon brewing, the Putharjhora Imperial White reveals a sophisticated profile that rivals the finest first-flush Darjeelings. It greets the palate with a bright, flowery effervescence and a distinct citrusy lift that feels both refreshing and elegant. However, it is not merely a Darjeeling alternative; it maintains a unique character of its own—offering a smoother, more grounded body characteristic of the Dooars terroir.
As with all our selections, this tea is 100% organic. This means it is grown in harmony with nature, free from synthetic pesticides and chemical fertilisers, ensuring that the delicate floral notes you taste are as pure as the mountain air where they grew.
Savour the secret of the Dooars with every sip of this exquisite Putharjhora Imperial White—a true connoisseur's choice.
About the Putharjhora Garden: An Organic Pioneer
The Putharjhora Tea Garden is a true visionary in the Dooars region of West Bengal. Nestled where the Gangetic plains meet the sharp rise of the Himalayan foothills, the garden is flanked by the two mountain rivers, Chel and Rinchington. In fact, its name literally translates to "River of Rocks" (Puthar meaning rock and Jhora meaning stream), reflecting the rugged, mineral-rich landscape that gives this tea its unique "effervescent" character.
Why Putharjhora is Special:
Organic & Biodynamic Leadership:
While many gardens are only now moving towards sustainable practices, Putharjhora has been 100% organic and biodynamic since 1997. It remains the only garden in the entire Dooars region to hold these prestigious certifications.
Elephant Friendly™ Certified:
The garden serves as a vital migratory corridor for wild elephants travelling between the Bhutan hills and Nepal's forests. Putharjhora is a world leader in wildlife conservation, having earned the "Elephant Friendly" certification for its commitment to peaceful coexistence with these majestic creatures.
A Sanctuary of Biodiversity:
Because no synthetic pesticides are used, the garden has become a thriving ecosystem. It is home to over 350 species of trees and a staggering array of wildlife, including peacocks, hornbills, and deer, which all contribute to the healthy, living soil that nourishes the tea bushes.
Ethical & Fairtrade:
As a pioneer of Fairtrade in India, Putharjhora ensures that its 1,000 workers and their families have access to high-quality housing, solar lighting, healthcare, and education.
By choosing our Putharjhora Imperial White, you are not just enjoying a world-class tea; you are supporting a garden that sets the global standard for ethical and environmental responsibility.
