NAGRI FARM

Terroir & Climate

At 1,244 metres above sea level, Nagri Farm occupies a mid-elevation position in West Bengal's tea-growing landscape. Estates at this altitude typically experience cooler ambient temperatures and a more pronounced diurnal variation than low-elevation gardens, factors that tend to slow leaf maturation and can contribute to greater accumulation of flavour compounds. The latitude—close to 27° N—places the estate in a zone where the monsoon cycle generally exerts a strong influence over the growing calendar, with a pronounced wet season alternating with drier, cooler months.

West Bengal's tea regions often benefit from well-distributed rainfall and mist cover during the growing season, conditions that tend to support steady, incremental leaf development. Estates in this elevation band generally flush from early spring through autumn, with each harvest period offering distinct character shaped by the interplay of temperature, moisture, and light intensity at the time of plucking.

Tea Produced

Nagri Farm produces black tea. Estates in West Bengal at this elevation often yield teas with a balanced structure, combining moderate body with a brisk, clean character. Mid-elevation gardens in the region typically produce liquors that fall between the lighter, more aromatic profile of high-altitude teas and the fuller, maltier notes associated with lower-lying plains. Depending on the flush and processing, teas from this altitude range can show floral or fruity notes alongside a foundational astringency and a smooth, rounded finish.

Supply Chain & Market Position

Nagri Farm is recorded as a supplier to Morrisons, one of the United Kingdom's leading supermarket chains. This relationship places the estate within the supply chain of a major mainstream retailer, suggesting that its output meets the quality, consistency, and compliance standards required for large-scale consumer distribution. Supplying a national grocery brand typically indicates reliable production volumes and adherence to traceability protocols expected by UK buyers.
