'Naga Tea', produced in Nagaland, have started fetching record prices giving 'Asom tea' a real run for money.

In the recent auctions 'Naga Tea' have been attracting record price, heralding a new era in tea production of the "industry-starved" state.

The 'Naga tea,' manufactured by Nagaland Tea Factory, have attracted second highest price in Guwahati Tea Auction last week.

Tea auction officials said the spurt in price and interest in Nagaland tea would have tremendous impact on the actual ground.

Most of the farmers have shifted towards exclusive tea cultivation in Nagaland instead of mixed crops.

The 'Naga tea' has similar taste and flavour like to Darjeeling, sources said.

Farmers in districts like Phek and Mon would soon be competing in terms of quality with neighbouring Asom.
