Darjeeling Badamtam Spring Clonal Black
Nestled in the tranquil Lebong Valley of Darjeeling, the Badamtam Tea Estate is a sanctuary of natural beauty and storied heritage. Established in 1858 by British planter Christine Barnes, its name is believed to stem from a Lepcha word meaning “bamboo water carrier,” a nod to the region’s deep cultural roots.
From its gently undulating hills, one can glimpse sweeping views of snow-capped Mt. Kanchenjunga—especially breathtaking at sunrise, when the peaks are bathed in golden light. The Rangeet and Majhitar rivers meander through the estate’s lush terrain, nurturing a biodiverse haven filled with wildflowers, birdsong, and whispering groves.
At the heart of the garden stands a serene, 14-foot-high Buddha statue—crafted by a renowned artist—which embodies the peaceful spirit and quiet strength of the estate. This harmony finds its way into the teas crafted here.
Badamtam is especially revered for its sublime black teas—crafted in limited batches during early spring. Delicate, fragrant, and shimmering with nuance, these teas join the estate’s celebrated First Flush offerings. The dedicated clonal cultivars used reflect the clarity and vitality of Badamtam’s high-elevation terroir and pristine environment.
