The mark is very popular for its consistent and bright CTC teas in the
domestic prime quality market. Its Orthodox teas have a sappy bright liquor,
which with its distinctive leaf style, make Nagrijuli teas unique from other
teas.
Moreover, Nagrijuli
has the flexibility of producing both premium quality Orthodox and CTC.

Estate is blessed with excellent climatic conditions. The climate of
Nagrijuli is typically ‘tropical monsoon rainfall’ type, with high levels of
humidity and heavy rainfall. People here enjoy a moderate climate all
throughout the year, with warm summers and mild winters.

flows through the garden adding to its charm. It is also known as in locally
DANGOR NODI(Big River) Wildlife thrives on its verdant fringes.

project in Nagrijuli. This is a village where people are cooperative and peace
loving.

plantation along with weekly holding i.e. a day of rest in every period of

| TEA LEAVES |
The Assam Chah Mazdoor
Sangha has been instrumental in improving the lives of
tea garden labourers. The sacrifice, toil
and hard work of these labourers gave shape to the tea industry of Assam.
However, the story behind the tea cultivation, plucking and processing of tea
leaves in the plantations is one of exploitation and untold hardships for the
tea labourers.
These
labourers are still living with the basic facilities provided by the tea
planters or companies. Poor standard of living and lack of education and health
facilities are the main problems of tea labourers.
