The House of Amranth
A house built on what it will not compromise.
“If we cannot name the garden and date the harvest, we do not carry the tea.”
House of Amranth is the orthodox tea house of Dharamraj Botanica LLP — rooted in India’s botanical heritage and devoted to a single, exacting idea: that a great tea should tell you precisely where it came from. We source only from GI-registered Darjeeling gardens and date every harvest before it reaches a tin. No invented scarcity. Only what the leaf, the garden and the season truly gave.
Heritage
Founded 2025 — a botanical house of Dharamraj Botanica LLP, India.
Sourcing
GI-registered Darjeeling gardens only — traceable to the batch.
Method
Orthodox, whole-leaf — rolled whole, never torn.
Promise
A named garden and a dated harvest, on every tin.
Our Flagship Garden
Giddapahar — one of
Darjeeling's smallest gardens.
Established in 1888 and known as “Eagle’s Cliff,” Giddapahar sits at roughly 4,500 feet in the Kurseong valley — among the smallest estates in the district. What it lacks in size it returns in care: every stage, from plucking to packing, is supervised by hand.
Fewer than 87 estates are certified to produce authentic Darjeeling. We work only within that circle — and we name every garden we work with.

The Harvest Calendar
Four flushes,
four temperaments.
First Flush
Spring
Delicate, floral and bright with a pale champagne liquor — the freshest expression of the leaf.
Second Flush
Summer
Muscatel grape, ripe stone fruit and a deep amber cup — the celebrated summer character.
Monsoon Flush
Monsoon
Bold, earthy, full-bodied — the rain-season harvest, deeply appreciated by those who find it.
Autumn Flush
Autumn
The year's mellow close — smooth, coppery and rounded, with a warmth that lingers.
The Season's Teas
The season,
in the cup.
