Tea Description


Tucked away in one of Darjeeling’s most remote and pristine corners, Darjeeling Samabeong Tea Estate is a hidden gem for lovers of exceptional tea. Established in 1882, this historic estate lies at the foot of the Himalaya mountains, close to the Bhutanese border, and is surrounded by the lush biodiversity of Neora Valley National Park. This rare location—home to magical flora, rare orchids, and even endangered species—offers the ideal environment for growing premium organic teas.

At elevations reaching up to 2,000 metres above sea level, Samabeong is one of the highest tea gardens in the Darjeeling region. The cool mountain air, filtered sunlight, and rich forest soil create a slow-growing environment where tea leaves develop complex flavours and refined aromas. The result is a truly exquisite first flush Darjeeling: bright, floral, and delicately brisk with the signature muscatel character prized by tea connoisseurs around the world.

Samabeong Tea Estate is renowned for producing only certified organic teas. With a deep respect for nature and biodiversity, every leaf is cultivated without chemical intervention, preserving both the integrity of the environment and the purity of the tea itself. Each harvest is carefully hand-plucked and crafted by skilled artisans to ensure the highest quality.

This First Flush tea captures the freshness and vitality of early spring and delivers a refined, elegant cup that reflects the untouched beauty of its origin. Perfect for those who value traceability, sustainability, and flavour in equal measure, Samabeong First Flush Darjeeling is a tea experience unlike any other.
