“If Darjeeling is the champagne of teas, Makaibari is the Krug or Henri Giraud”
Makaibari, our partner tea estate was awarded ‘Best cup of tea’ in Time Magazine Best of Asia 2008.
All of our black, green and white come from Makaibari, a remarkable estate that pioneered organic and biodynamic agriculture in Darjeeling.

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition has recently published the results of a work on the essences of green tea.

These effects, once ascribed to caffeine, have now been confirmed to be misrelated. In the study, some subjects consumed green tea supplements and the rest where administered the same quantity of caffeine in other manners.
