Makaibari - rainforest.The Makaibari region is a beautiful mystical place on the border of India, Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan. Not only the surrounding magical mountain Kurseong predestines teas with exceptional properties. More than 150 years ago, one beautiful story began of a man named GC Banerjee, who had the courage and desire to change the lives of a handful of people in seven poor villages in the inhospitable conditions of the rainforest. They worked rocky soil bit by bit and planted Chinese tea (Camellia sinensis) plants here. The world's first tea garden was created in 1859, and Mr. Rajah Banerjee continues this tradition today. He represents the fourth generation of his ancestors, and whom we had the opportunity to meet in person. In the 1970s, he decided to follow the Austrian philosopher and esotericist Rudolf Steiner, who in his lectures in 1924 described the principles of biodynamic agriculture. Biodynamic agriculture is an alternative way of managing land, where harmony between the plant and animal kingdoms is important. The products of both help each other and thus create a closed circle where everything is utilized. Not surprisingly, in 1988, Makaibari received the world's first tea garden certificate. FOR MORE INFORMATION, SEE THE PDF FILE BELOW
