Bargang Estate has been producing some of the finest teas since 1897. The first harvest of the year in Assam provides liquors that are light and slightly grassy; Second Flush teas are harvested in late May-early June, when rising temperatures and more generous rainfall encourage the bushes to grow more vigorously. The result is teas that are stronger and more satisfying, with a delicious smooth sweetness and malty richness.
