tea estate
Hillside leaf plantation
A tea estate is a large agricultural property devoted to growing tea, typically found in regions like India, Sri Lanka, and Kenya.
The term implies scale and organization—processing facilities, worker housing, and hundreds or thousands of acres under cultivation.
The Darjeeling tea estate has been in the family for four generations.
Estate also appears on packaging to indicate single-origin tea rather than blended varieties.
