Teabox Darjeeling Turzum Summer Chinary Black

Description

:

• Nestled in the picturesque Mirik valley of Darjeeling, Turzum tea estate embodies a rich history dating back to the 1860s. 
• Established alongside the Sungma garden, Turzum endured an earthquake in 1934, leading to the amalgamation of the two gardens into a singular, thriving tea-producing entity.
• Following the merger, Turzum assumed operations, marking the beginning of its legacy.
• Over the years, the garden transitioned through various management phases, from the Jhunjhunwala family’s stewardship in the late 1950s to its acquisition by the Jindals in the 1970s.
• Eventually, the Jayshree Group took the helm, effectively managing the estate alongside several other plantations in Darjeeling and Assam.
• Situated in the tranquil Rungbong region, a mere 25 kilometers from Darjeeling and close to the scenic town of Mirik, Turzum tea estate boasts elevations ranging from 1100 to 1700 meters above sea level.
• Renowned for its cultivation of exquisite teas of distinctive quality, Turzum derives its name from ‘Taru Zum,’ signifying a weekly market akin to the vibrant haat bazaars.
• With its mist-laden slopes and breathtaking vistas, Turzum continues to be a beacon of excellence in Darjeeling’s tea landscape, with its unique climate and terrain infusing its Summer teas with unparalleled flavor and character.
