In 1835, the British East India Company leased the region around the location of the modern-day city of Darjeeling.
The British strategically placed the trading post to build a sanatorium there as well!

The climate brought relief to sanatorium visitors.  It also can be thanked for one of the most sought-after tea varieties in the world: Darjeeling. Tea connoisseurs from around the globe treasure the extremely fine and flowery aroma of the First Flush, the first harvest of the years new growth. But the many flavors of teas from the following harvests are also unsurpassed.

While searching for the best teas, the players cross the entire region and assemble the largest shipments possible for each individual tea variety.
