SILVER NEEDLES WHITE TEA from BIHAR TEA ESTATE

ORIGIN
Bihar is a state in East India, bordering Nepal. It is divided by the River Ganges, which floods its fertile plains. Important Buddhist pilgrimage sites include the Bodhi Tree in Bodhgaya's Mahabodhi Temple, under which the Buddha allegedly meditated.

Doke Tea Estate is a family tea production, run by Lochan family and focused on specialty tea segment as well as tea education. Rajiv Lochan, the founder and head of a project, is a famous tea entertainer from India, professional tea taster and international Indian tea representative. Rajiv has made a great contribution to the development and popularization of Indian tea, winner of a huge number of international awards in the tea industry and, finally, just a tea person who devoted his life to tea. Being producing tea in Darjeeling since 1974, he moved to Bihar in 1997 and became a first person who started to grow and produce tea in this area. A wonderful story of a connection between human with tea, which is passed down from generation to generation.
