Organic Teas
Organic teas are the ones that are grown in tea estates with absolutely no
chemical inputs or artificial fertilizers. Nutrition for the tea bushes is provided by the use of Vermiculture and large
scale application of compost and oil cakes. All pest and disease control is carried out by purely natural methods of
cultivation. Compost, neem cake and castor cake are dug into trenches to enhance the soil. In addition, neem acts as a
natural insect repellant. The soil in the estates is carefully inspected throughout the year by the certifying body. A new
estate receives a certificate that says organic in transit for the first three years of its conversion. After the
three-year period a regular organic certification is issued. Certificates are reissued every year after inspections.
