Makaibari Tea Estate retweeted
Makaibari was delighted to welcome @USAmbIndia. We hope you enjoyed the tea, a beverage that helped brew America’s freedom. In India too, tea served freedom: @MakaibariTea was among Darjeeling’s first Indian-owned estates, and @LuxmiTea was founded in 1912 in defiance of the British Raj
Great to be in Darjeeling! Started my visit with one of the region’s most iconic traditions - a stop at the historic @MakaibariTea Estate and, of course, a cup of world-famous Darjeeling tea.
First Flush—the season of beginnings
As winter’s hush fades, the Makaibari slopes awaken in a symphony of renewal. The air hums with the whispers of dawn, carrying the scent of young, emerald leaves kissed by the mist. This is the season of First Flush—the season of beginnings.
Where will your next sip take you?
With Makaibari’s exquisite Tea Tumbler, your favorite brews travel with you, an infusion of elegance, wherever life leads.
Established in 1859 as the world’s first tea factory, Makaibari has always grown with the strength of its women, who today make up over 70% of its workforce.
This Women’s Day, we celebrate the women who nurture the land, the tea, and the spirit of Makaibari.
We showed up with something close to our hearts at the @indiabartendershow, Makaibari Zero Proof. We’ve always believed tea can hold its own at any table, even the bar.
If you stopped by, thank you for raising a glass with us. If you missed it, this is just the beginning.
