This year, Andrew Yule's Mim Tea Estate received a Certificate of Appreciation as an esteemed and valued partner of Tea Box in recognition of the quality of production -- especially this year’s exceptional Mim White Dew Tea -- and excellence in achieving and maintaining the highest quality standards, the company said in a release.

In its effort to meet the requirement of some European buyers, Tea Box wanted some exclusive tea from selective sections of Mim Tea Estate.

The teas manufactured at Mim met their requirement and fetched a premium price of Rs.15,750, which is a record price for any tea sold by Andrew Yule & Company Limited this season.

"Mim at Darjeeling has over 50 hectares of organic plantation," said Debasis Jana, CMD, Andrew Yule & Company Limited. "The quality teas from here are  premium, and have niche markets in Japan, Middle East, Europe, USA and Canada. Harrods of London and Japan merchandises these teas. Mim also manufactures Green Tea and Specialty teas like White Tea, Oolong, Hand rolled, Pearl and Moondrop Balls. This year it has been a great feather in our cap to have Mim White Dew being sold for such a premium rate."

The distinguishing features of White Dew tea’s liquor is that its light, velvety smooth, medium bodied and tipped with delicate floral flavours.

Soft floral notes similar to geranium and jasmine greet the palate and stay until the middle, interrupted briefly by undertones of sweet vegetables which emerge at the edges.

There is a pleasant and lingering floral aftertaste.

The second steep done at 5 minutes is mellower and has a pronounced flavour of green apple in it. It is highly recommended with ice for a truly majestic and enjoyable experience.
