The Nilgiris are a hill region in Southern India, near the British Hill Station of Ooty. All our Nilgiri tea comes from one Estate, Havukul. All the employees of the New Zealand Tea Company have visited this Estate. The teas are light and fresh and very similar to Ceylon tea. They are one of India's best kept secrets and this tea has not been available in New Zealand before. They can be drunk in the afternoon or evening without any problems. One we have called afternoon tea as that is the best time to drink this wonderful tea. Most can be drunk both on their own and with milk. The two highest quality Nilgiri teas are Havukul TGFOP and Havukul SFTGFOP. These are first grade whole leaf teas. The other two teas are also large leafed and good on their own or blended with Assam tea to make English breakfast.
