Kerala (Munnar Tea Plantation) - 20150212-01

            The highest tea estates in India are found in and around Munnar, in the hill ranges of Kerala's Western Ghats.

In the wild, tea bushes can grow to three or four metres in height, but on the plantations they are kept to waist height by plucking the top leaves for tea.

The leaves are plucked by hand by women carrying baskets on their backs.  The leaves are sorted into different classifications, depending on how they will be processed, ultimately becoming green, oolong or black tea.
