The Nilgiris, or Blue Mountains, are in Tamil Nadu, South India, spanning parts of Karnataka and Kerala. Known for their rolling hills, cool climate, and lush tea estates, they are a prized tea-growing region in the Western Ghats.

Nilgiri tea estates range from 1,000 to 2,500 meters (3,280 to 8,200 feet), offering the perfect high-altitude conditions for slow-grown, aromatic teas.
