About the Garden

Following the gentle curves of the Rangeet River, Badamtam rises from 3,000 to nearly 6,000 feet, where drifting Himalayan mists and fertile mountain slopes have shaped exceptional teas for generations. Founded in 1858 by Christine Barnes, one of the few women to establish a Darjeeling tea estate during the colonial era, the estate carries a remarkable pioneering legacy. Its name is often interpreted as "a bamboo-covered place" or "the place of bamboo," reflecting the lush landscape that existed before tea transformed the valley. Today, heritage China bushes and carefully selected clonal cultivars continue to yield elegant harvests admired for their floral brilliance, vibrant clarity and enduring charm.
