BHARAT TEA ESTATE

Established in 1933, Bharat Tea is an iconic local company. Originally, the plantation simply sold tea leaves to a local processing factory. In 1963, it acquired a neighboring plantation with its own factory, and in 1994 Bharat began marketing a locally-produced tea, Cameron Valley Tea. The company organizes tours of its plantations, as well as high-tea and tastings. The company has two stores, with beautiful views and explanations of the transformation process.
