A land of extraordinary biodiversity

What truly sets Tea Artisan apart?

It begins with where our tea grows—at the foot of Longwood Shola Reserve Forest in Kotagiri.

01

Forest

A living sanctuary

Longwood Shola—known locally as Dodda Solai, or “Big Forest”—is a rare 116-hectare evergreen shola. Its protected, bird-rich ecosystem carries the rhythm of the seasons through the hills of Kotagiri.

02

Garden

Nature enriches the leaf

Fruit trees, flowering plants, forest life, mountain mist, and rich highland soil surround our garden. Together, they create the natural environment in which each leaf develops its distinctive character.

03

Craft

Preserved by hand

Only the finest leaves and buds are selected. Careful handpicking, small-batch craftsmanship, and minimal intervention preserve the tea’s naturally expressive floral and fruity notes.
