Avongrove Tea Estate, Tea garden in Darjeeling district, India
The Avongrove Tea Estate spans 200 hectares across the Rungbong Valley, situated between 670 and 1700 meters above sea level along the Balasun River.
Founded in 1889, the estate resumed operations under KPL International Ltd in 2008 after remaining closed for over twenty years.
Five hundred workers maintain the gardens throughout the year, producing specialized Darjeeling teas including peony rosette and handcrafted florette varieties.
The estate generates between 60,000 to 70,000 kilograms of tea annually and holds organic certifications from the USA, Japan, European Union, and India.
The gardens benefit from perennial water sources that enable irrigation across all growing areas, with 60% of plants being chinary varieties and 40% hybrid bushes.
