AVATAA WHITE TEA WINS GOLD MEDAL IN GLOBAL CONTEST

By P S SUNDAR

Tea Board Executive Director C Paulrasu has honoured G Udayakumar, Director, Avataa Beverages, for bringing credit to the Nilgiris with the Avataa White Tea bagging Rank No: 1 at the ‘Gold Medal Tea Competition’ at the 8th Annual North American Tea Conference.

“Our winning this Gold Medal is an acknowledgement by the international tea community that the White Tea produced in The Nilgiris is qualitatively superior to all varieties of teas produced in any part of India, including the world-famous Darjeeling”, Udayakumar told me. 

White Tea is a speciality product commanding premium prices in the world market.

“We manufacture Avataa White Tea with the tender leaves plucked as a ‘single leaf with a bud’ from the exclusive tea bushes in the select sections of Billimalai Estate, some 10 kilometres from Coonoor”, Udayakumar noted.

“Located at an elevation of 6,400 feet above mean sea level, the tea leaves of this estate hold white pubescence hairy leaf structure by nature and that adds to the taste of the white tea manufactured with these leaves”, he disclosed.

“These select leaves undergo mild dehydration process in a hi-tech methodology and the end product has a jade green and silvery leaf appearance producing fragrant brew with a light and refreshing aroma followed by soothing after taste”, he explained.  

“Tea Board had earlier distributed our teas at Olympic Games. To help connoisseurs and common consumers enjoy white tea, we have come out with combination packs containing other varieties with White Tea”, Avataa Beverages Speciality Tea Production Executive ENR Vejayashekara said.
