Our High Altitude farm – Kapchorua is our highest altitude farm at close to 7,000 feet above sea level and is bordered by a steep slope overlooking the tea fields. The dark reddish soils of the valley and slow growth of the tea bushes produce a bright edge to the colour of the teas and give a strong sculpted taste.
