Report On One Day Industrial Visit to Tea Factory
Dodabetta Tea Factory, at Coonoor, TamilNadu was founded in the year 2005, and is well managed by Mr. N.K.Krishnamoorthy, former Member of Tea Board. Factory sprawls over an area of 1 acre in Ooty the midst of the many blue hills of the Nilgiris, second largest hill station, bounded by tea plantations, at an altitude of 1839 metres. Our production capacity is 30 tons per month. Having about 35 years of experience in Tea field operations has passion to set a Tea Museum adjacent to the Dodabetta Tea Factory. As per his desire, he established the Tea Museum on 1 acre at Ooty.
The Tea Museum has been our dreams come true.
We had for long contemplated on the need to enlighten all of us, as residents of one of India’s largest tea growing districts, and also our visitors, on the rather exciting story of the evolution of Tea. Having finally decided to go ahead with this rather daunting task, we felt the ideal place to record and present all these wonderful pieces of history, should be the Nilgiris itself. So we got down to the task, but soon realized that just like almost all other aspects of history, the evolution of tea too, was shrouded with numerous versions.
