Presenting after a while, the 2026 version of Nilgiri Candy Green Tea. Made at an altitude of 6200 feet, using specially developed cultivars by the estate, Nilgiri greens will always be our favourites. They are always crafted meticulously, with perfect harmony between nature, tea pluckers and the tea makers.

This year's batch is slightly different, being punchier than ever before. The dry leaf smells like ripe mango, when placed on a heated ware, it oozes a creamy and dessert like aroma. On your first sip, you get notes of green grapes. As you sip further, you get notes of pears and maple syrup. It has hints of freshly cut grass and is also slightly umami, offering one of the most unique combinations. As you sip further, you get notes of peaches and green apple. Once you are halfway done with your cup you get the mango candy note, which this tea gets its name from. There are notes of almond desserts present too, resembling almond frangipane croissants. There's a hint of saffron in the finish sometimes, adding a nice sweetness to it. We are sure you would enjoy this delicious tea.

 

Made in the beautiful and fertile plains of Bihar, we are happy to offer another batch of this delicious tea. Harvested in summers, this one is a slightly lighter version we are sure you would have a lot of fun with.

 

The dry leaf has sweet aroma of honey and palm sugar, when placed on the heated ware, you get notes of malt and cocoa. As you take your first sip, you are greeted with notes of oranges and malt. On further sips, you get delicious notes of peach and whipped cream. When the liquor cools down, the woody note makes itself present with a very long aftertaste. The finish is slightly fruity too, with notes of red grapes making an appearance as it further cools down. This is a comforting tea which ticks all the strong black tea boxes but is never bitter.
