Khongea Estate in Assam is known for its flavorful and robust teas. It produces an amber liquor that's bold and lightly malty, so you can savor it with or without milk. And it's perfect for making chai or starting your day with a refreshing cuppa. As the "Champagne of tea" is to Darjeeling, so the best "single malt whiskey" of tea is to Khongea - at least, that's according to the Prakash family, who have been running the estate for over half a century!
