Nilgiri tea is grown in the Blue Mountains of southern India, where high elevation, cool mist, and consistent sunshine create ideal growing conditions. Known for its fragrant aroma and clean, brisk character, Nilgiri black tea delivers a smooth, medium-bodied cup that’s never bitter and always refreshing.
This tea stands out for its versatility. It can be enjoyed hot or iced, plain or with milk, making it an easy favourite for daily drinking. While not as famous as Darjeeling or Assam, Nilgiri tea is quietly becoming a go-to for tea lovers who want a cup that’s aromatic, reliable, and full of flavour.
At British Tea Centre, we offer carefully selected Nilgiri black tea sourced directly from high-altitude estates. These teas are handpicked and processed with care to bring out their bright, floral character and natural sweetness.
Whether you’re steeping it for a quiet moment or brewing a pot for guests, Nilgiri tea brings a balance of strength and smoothness that fits any occasion.
