Description:
Deep in the jungles that grow along the banks of the Brahmaputra, within clear eyeshot of the Himalayas, lies fabled Borengajuli Estate. Borengajuli has long been the talk of the Assam tea trade. Borengajuli made its name via the outstanding tea it produces, the result of a painstaking “natural cloning” process. Borengajuli’s teas are almost perfect. Borengajuli is one of the highest yielding estates in terms of exceptional, luxury grade teas.

HOT TEA:
1. Put 1 slightly heaping teaspoon of Borengajuli Estate tea for each 7-9 oz/200-260ml of water in the teapot.

3. Add Milk & Sugar to taste.
ICED TEA: (1L/QT):

Additional info:
Ask any of the planters at any of the clubs from Guwahati to Pertabghur and they’ll tell you the same thing. Borengajuli’s teas are almost perfect. It wasn’t always so. Many years ago, plucky Estate managers began selecting the finest plants the gardens had to offer. They looked for bushes with higher yields, an abundance of “tip”, superb flavor and better resistance to drought and pests. These bushes were placed in a special nursery and over time, cuttings were made that were nurtured and replanted in the gardens. Gradually, as more and more cuttings grew into full bushes, the estate filled with these “perfect” tea bushes.

I love fresh loose tea, I prefer a strong tea with a good taste. Most of my family drink loose leaf tea in preference to coffee. I look forward to trying more of the different variety of teas.

A very nice tea, lovely color and flavor, you need to make sure to brew it for a full 5mins in a pre-heated pot as it is large leaves and needs time for the flavor to develop.

It is wonderful to rediscover good tea. I’ve used teabags for so long that I had forgotten what tea should really taste like and now with Assam Darjeeling and Earl Grey blends. I have fallen in love with tea again. Thank You.

This is genuine full-leaf tea and even though it is almost half the price of the brand I was originally buying it is just as, if not more delicious.

Diana –
It has a lovely fresh flavour. The colour is very easily diluted with the smallest amount of milk, but don’t let that deceive you, it is still a very strong tea.
If done well, can even give you a buzz!

Lovely cup of tea and for the price and prompt delivery more than good value and will certainly be purchasing again and will be looking at some of the other blends that they do in the very near future.
