For us, Darjeeling is more than where our tea comes from. It is where Mayukh Tea began.
Founded in Darjeeling in 2007 and rooted in generations of tea knowledge, we have spent nearly two decades understanding, tasting and sharing teas that reflect the true character of the hills.
Here is what makes Mayukh different.
Our relationship with tea began long before Mayukh.
Our founder, Rupesh Pradhan, grew up on Singtom Tea Estate in a family connected with tea for four generations. The gardens, changing seasons and craft of tea making have always been part of our story.
Today, Mayukh continues to call Darjeeling home.
We don't simply sell Darjeeling tea. We come from Darjeeling.
Good tea cannot be chosen from a catalogue or specification sheet alone.
It has to be tasted.
Our founder personally tastes and selects teas for Mayukh, evaluating each lot for its leaf, aroma, liquor and overall character before it becomes part of our collection.
From everyday Darjeeling teas to distinctive single-estate selections, every tea has a reason for being here.
We work with selected tea estates across the Darjeeling hills, building relationships that allow us to discover teas across different gardens, seasons and harvests.
This gives us the freedom to select teas for their quality and character, rather than being limited to a single garden.
Because the best expression of Darjeeling can change from one season to the next.
A remarkable tea deserves to reach you with its character intact.
Our teas are carefully packed and vacuum-sealed at source to help preserve their natural aroma, flavour and freshness.
From the garden to the pack and eventually your cup, we take care to protect what makes each tea special.
Darjeeling is never just one tea.
Spring brings the delicate and floral character of First Flush. Summer develops the richer, fuller and celebrated muscatel character of Second Flush. Autumn brings its own mellow and rounded expression.
We celebrate these natural differences instead of trying to make every cup taste the same.
Garden. Season. Harvest. Character.
They all matter.
