OUR STORY
House of Tumsong is a retail initiative of the Chamong Group, created to bring exclusive organic Darjeeling and Assam teas to tea drinkers across India.
Drawing on seven generations of tea-making knowledge and Chamong’s internationally respected garden expertise, we offer distinctive teas selected for their origin, character and quality—bringing the experience of exceptional Indian tea closer to home.
WHY CHOOSE US?
Seven Generations. One Enduring Devotion to Tea.
Since 1916, our family has lived and worked among India’s tea gardens, passing down a practical understanding of the land, the leaf and the cup.
Rooted in Darjeeling and Assam and shaped by the international experience of the Chamong Group, our approach combines artisanal judgement with modern precision. From careful plucking and processing to the assessment of aroma, liquor, palate and finish, every tea is approached according to its individual character.
House of Tumsong carries this inheritance forward for a new generation—preserving the distinctive qualities of each origin while meeting the expectations of today’s discerning tea drinker.
Artisanal Methods, Guided by Experience
For us, artisanal tea-making is not about following a single formula. It is about applying judgement at every stage.
The character of a tea begins in the garden, but it is shaped through careful plucking, handling and processing. The requirements each variety of tea is different and must be approached on its own terms.
Our teas are assessed through the appearance of the dry leaf, the clarity and colour of the liquor, the quality of the aroma, the structure on the palate and the length of the finish. These details help us identify teas with genuine character—not merely strength, colour or uniformity.
Modern technology supports consistency and precision, while generations of sensory knowledge guide the decisions that technology cannot make. It is this balance of craft and capability that allows us to preserve the individuality of every tea while maintaining the standards our buyers expect.
