Perfect Home, Perfect Chai, Perfect Weather! - Weather in the Nilgiris

 

While in Kotagiri, perched high in the Nilgiris, most evenings the talk turns to tea, the weather and the prices of green leaves in Kotagiri. Nothing much has changed. Tea is still top dog.  A small difference though, planters these days are not English, Scottish or Irish; they are Tamilian, Kannada, or Malayalee.  The story of tea from the Nilgiris has been told numerous times and yet it hasn’t lost its charm. Nilgiris tea is generally described as being a dark, intensely aromatic, fragrant and flavoured tea grown in the southern portion of the Western Ghats Mountains of Southern India.
