In Amgoorie, the factory is remarkably clean

Posted in Country : India by François-Xavier Delmas | Tags : , , ,

The factory at the Amgoorie Tea Estate (Assam) has a remarkable size. It is the pride and joy of the planter there, Amar Nain, who designed it. The light, clean space make a change from the rather dilapidated, dimly lit buildings I often visit.

On the floor are pyramids of teas of different grades, waiting to be packed after a final quality check which is carried out by hand, leaf by leaf.

  • Wow this is amazing I wonder how much that facility’s overhead is being as clean as it is. Nice to know that each tea is hand inspected and that is comes from some place clean. I too am familiar with the dark dingy places.
