Doke White Tea

About Us

Doke is the name of a very productive organic tea Garden in India. The lush garden rests in an area called Pothia, Kishanganj. The area is very poor, with high unemployment and a lot of civil unrest. In 1998 Mr. Rajiv Lochan, a lifelong tea garden manager and now tea business expert, decided to plant new tea bushes on small plot of land. Many said that the land was 'useless', but Rajiv persisted, with the help of the garden workers and local farmers the garden began to surprise everyone, including Rajiv.

The garden was highly productive, and even more amazing, it was yielding 40-50% green tips, or White Tea. With the great news, Rajiv decided to help give back to the community and committed to sharing the profits with workers, and helping educate locals through the development of the Indus Foundation.

Today both the garden and the foundation are going strong. Doke White tea is quickly becoming one of the most sought after White teas in the world!
