The Kolukkumalai Tea Estate outside of Munnar, India is the highest organic tea plantation in the world.
With plants growing at elevations of over 8,000 feet, it should be no surprise when we say it is not the easiest of places to visit.
After a rather lackluster government run tour in Munnar the day before, we decided to hire a private Jeep to take us to this incredibly remote facility as the views were supposed to be some of the best.
Even with the poorly run tour, we already knew that the region topped the Boh Tea Plantation in the Cameron Highlands, and going even higher for more beauty was something we couldn't begin to comprehend.
With blue skies above and none of Munnar's famous view-impeding mists in sight, our journey put us on the path to vistas we never thought possible.
