Explore the landscape, craft and flavour of Nilgiri tea with fourth-generation planter Sandeep Subramani at his Tranquilitea estate in Coonoor.
Begin with a guided estate walk to see how sustainable cultivation, soil health and the particular conditions of the Nilgiris shape what ends up in your cup. An introduction to hand-rolling reveals the care and skill behindtea-making, and the ways this process influences its aroma and flavour.
Then settle in for a tasting of Tranquilitea’s single-estate teas, accompanied by local pairings, high tea and stories from the hills. From growing leaf to finished brew, the experience gives you time to taste closely, ask questions, and discover the nuances of a landscape through its teas.
