It's A Daunting Job

The tea terraces of Munnar ramble on for miles. Many were planted when the British controlled the country. Now a huge conglomerate called Tata owns the various properties. Tata also makes the new cars seen on the highways of India.

 

The business of cultivating tea is enormous as well. That is until it comes down to the harvesting. About every three months or so, only the new leaves are cut on a plant that are then processed into the tea that we finally drink!
