Sikkim's one and only exclusive Tea Boutique, "GOLDEN TIPS" recently opened on the ground floor of Yangthang House at Sonam Tshering Marg (Kazi Road)
Mr B. B. Gurung, ex-Chief.Minister and Advisor to the present Chief.Minister of Sikkim was the Chief Guest and inaugurated the showroom with the cutting of the ceremonial ribbon & lighting of the auspicious lamps in the midst of other dignitaries, guests and eminent members of the media & Press. Refreshments and fine Sikkim teas were served to all guests.
The Chief Guest hailed the opening of this specialty boutique mentioning that the inauguration was well timed as it also coincided with the historic and path breaking opening of the Indo-China border at Nathula (near Gangtok) around the same time after almost 50 years of closure.
This specialty and unique boutique is slated to be one of its kind in the region. A huge range of fine estate teas from Sikkim, Darjeeling, Assam, Nilgiri, etc., will be on display along with over 150 varieties of teas in innovative handcrafted Gift packaging under
the GOLDEN TIPS brand.
Apart from this, various paraphernalia on tea such as books, tea pots & cups, kettles, tea boxes, tea spoons, variety of strainers & infusers, tea cosies, paintings on tea, etc. are on display and also available for sale.
The aesthetically designed showroom has a several beautifully done graphics and paintings which trace and celebrate the history of tea since the inception of this wonderful beverage.
To add to this, the boutique shall be having a seated tea service where almost 100 varieties of different teas – single estate and blends, iced & flavoured, spiced and tea mocktails will be served out of a special Tea Menu, along with light snacks. Tea lovers &
connoisseurs can simply taste, sip and relax with their favorite cuppa and also buy to carry away if they so wish.
This unique venture is slated to fill the vacuum that exists in Sikkim as far the display, retailing, packaging, service and sale of fine teas is concerned since there is practically nothing of even a much less scale that exists there.
Sikkim's Temi Tea - from the only plantation in the state - is also slated to get a substantial boost since this new boutique will highlight the same at all times and also have a wide range of all grades of teas from
all seasons from this estate in loose as well as in handcrafted gift packaging.
This showroom-cum-boutique will also provide the much needed opportunity to local denizens of the state as well as to Indian and foreign tourists to taste, see, select and buy very fine teas of their choice grown in Sikkim, Darjeeling and other areas of the country from a reputed company in the ambience of a tastefully decorated and well stocked tea boutique in loose and also in over 150 varieties of innovative and exotic handcrafter packaging.
There are several plans for the constant promotion of Sikkim Teas by way of events, meets, festivals, contests, visits and talks by eminent people and experts from the industry and trade at the showroompremises
Substantial reason to plan a trip to this lovely and eco-friendly Himalayan Kingdom !!
