KORANGANI TEA ESTATE

Tea is an integral part of our life. We are so fond of it and some are addicts also but very few know the source of it and the method by which it is processed and sold as a finished product ready for consumption.

To create the awareness of the production of tea we present the concept of tea tourism.

Korangani is situated in the Moranhat district of Assam close to Jorehat and Dibrugarh. The accomodation offered is good with a touch of the old world charm.

Food served is simple and hygenic.

The tour starts with the first day driving to the garden from the Jorehat airport or Dibrugarh airport - 2hrs either one of them. Checkinto the Garden bunglow.

Day 2 After breakfast go out with the pluckers for a round of plucking and orienteering of the garden. After lunch visit the factory to know how tea is made and graded. Evening enjoy the Jhumur ( local ) dance.
