Usually, the Himalayan monsoon approaches with a magnanimous rush just after a short summer season in eastern Nepal, the soil in the hills that surround the Himalayas is the first to receive it. When the monsoon is full blown the tea bushes planted in these hills feed very little and qualitatively from their roots, the physical structure of the soil also changes due to excess moisture. Hence the tea characterizes the golden red soil of Sakhejung.
Golden tips is a specialty black tea popular with the tea makers as it exudes the aromas of the forest and exhibits the culture of sakhejung.
