Teabox Darjeeling Mim Spring Chinary Black

Description:

• Established in the mid to late 1800s, the garden’s name, “Mim,” has an interesting backstory.
• Locally, the term “Mem” referred to a British lady. When the garden was managed by a British woman, the locals affectionately called it “Mem ko Kaman,” meaning the garden run by the British lady.
• The name “Mim” was derived from this colloquial reference.
• Mim is the only tea garden in Darjeeling that is owned by the Government of India.
  
• Situated in Jorebunglow, Sukhiapokhari, within the Darjeeling district, the estate predominantly has Chinary tea bushes & sits at an elevation of approximately 5,000 feet above sea level.
• At this elevation, Mim benefits from the region's unique terroir, characterized by cool temperatures, misty mornings, and fertile soil.
• This natural environment, coupled with the expertise of skilled tea masters, results in teas that boast unparalleled aroma, flavor, and complexity.
