Nokhroy Golden Tips(100gms)

Nokhroy Golden Tips is one of the most exclusive teas in our collection. Made entirely from the golden-coloured tips (buds) of the tea plant, this tea represents the absolute pinnacle of Assam tea craftsmanship.

The golden colour comes from the fine trichomes on the youngest buds, which when carefully processed, produce a tea of extraordinary sweetness and smoothness. Every aspect of this tea — the honey-like sweetness, the buttery mouthfeel, the complete absence of bitterness — signals luxury.

This is the kind of tea that makes you pause and pay attention. It is not for gulping with milk and sugar. It is for sipping slowly, noticing how the flavour develops across the cup, and appreciating the craft that went into its creation.

Q: Why is golden tips tea so expensive?

A: Golden Tips uses only the youngest buds, which are available in extremely limited quantities. The yield per acre is a tiny fraction of regular tea production. The careful processing demands additional skill and time.

Q: How is this different from Donyi Polo Golden Tips?

A: Both are golden tips teas, but from different estates and terroirs. Nokhroy is from Assam (warmer, lower altitude) producing a richer, more malty character. Donyi Polo is from Arunachal Pradesh (cooler, higher altitude) with a slightly lighter, more nuanced profile.

Q: Is this suitable as a luxury gift?

A: Absolutely. At ₹1,200 for 100g, this is a luxury product that most people have never experienced. It makes an unforgettable gift for tea lovers, foodies, or anyone who appreciates rare artisanal products.

Garden-Direct Sourcing: Every tea comes directly from the estate — no middlemen, no blending.
