Thurbo Darjeeling Tea Estate

Thurbo is a very famous name when it comes to Darjeeling Tea. As with most Darjeeling tea gardens, there is a unique story behind its name whic is based on a historic event. The British set up a camp in the estate to invade Nepal. The word camp is known as 'Tombu' in local dialect and hence over the years the name has become Thurbo.

The hills and peaks of Nepal are visible from here as it is located in the shadow of the mighty Kanchenjunga. Small streams and rivulets mark its boundaries and the Mechi and Rangbang gurgle down to the plans with organge orchards and orchid farms lending an exotic charm to the tea. Thurbo's indigenous clonal teas have unique character, this combined with other 'jats' like P316 & AV2 grows matchless autumnal teas. The teas imbue a rare and delicate fragrance. Its China is bright and flavour and Assam hybrids round and sweet.
