Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the questions we receive most often.
Can't find what you need? Write to us directly — we read everything.
1. Is Teas of Darjeeling a shop? Can I buy tea here?
No. We are a non-commercial knowledge platform — we do not sell tea, accept commissions, or take advertising from estates. Our goal is education and verification, not commerce. We will, however, help you understand exactly where and how to buy genuine Darjeeling tea.
2. How do I know if the Darjeeling tea I bought is authentic?
Start with three things: the official Tea Board of India Darjeeling logo (the woman holding two leaves and a bud), the estate name — which must be one of 87 registered gardens — and the DJ invoice number. Our Counterfeit Verification Guide walks you through the full checklist. Genuine Darjeeling tea retails at a minimum of ₹1,500–₹2,000 per 100g for quality lots. Anything significantly cheaper is almost certainly not the real thing.
3. I am a journalist or researcher. Can I use your content as a source?
Yes — that is precisely what this platform is built for. All content is fully sourced, grounded in verified data, and written to serve as a reliable reference. Please credit “Teas of Darjeeling (teasofdarjeeling.com)” and reach out if you need clarification, additional data, or a subject-matter expert for comment.
4. I work at a tea estate or in the industry. Can we collaborate?
We welcome contributions from planters, tea makers, tasters, researchers, and anyone with firsthand knowledge of the Darjeeling tea world. If you have estate history, tasting expertise, processing knowledge, or a story that belongs in the record — write to us. Our People & Culture archive is built on exactly these conversations.
5. Do you cover Nepal tea or other Himalayan origins?
Our primary focus is the 87 registered estates of Darjeeling and Kalimpong. We do address Nepal’s Ilam district in the context of the counterfeit crisis and the broader challenge of truth in labeling — but we do not profile Nepal gardens as though they were Darjeeling. We believe Nepal tea deserves its own authoritative platform, on its own terms.
