Boh Plantations Sdn. Bhd. — Attraction in Pahang

BOH Plantations Sdn Bhd is the largest black tea manufacturer in Malaysia, with both domestic and international distribution. The BOH tea plantation, which is located in Cameron Highlands, Pahang, is also the largest tea plantation in the country.

BOH Plantations was founded in 1929 by J. A. Russell, a British-born businessman, during the British colonial era in Malaya. Russell arrived in Kuala Lumpur at age seven, in 1890; the country's primary export at the time was tin. Prior to BOH, Russell had worked in the Straits Trading Company, learning to speak several Chinese dialects (along with Malay) and making connections with wealthy Chinese tin miners.

Nestled in the beautiful Cameron Highlands, Boh Plantation offers a breathtaking view that’s worth the visit on its own. The serene surroundings, paired with the refreshing cool breeze, creates a truly relaxing atmosphere perfect for unwinding and enjoying nature. It’s an ideal spot for those seeking peace and tranquility amidst stunning landscapes.

However, while the view and environment are undeniably impressive, the food experience leaves much to be desired. The offerings, unfortunately, fall short in taste and quality, which is disappointing given the plantation’s otherwise idyllic setting. The food lacked the flavor and variety one might expect, making it difficult to fully enjoy the visit.

Overall, The Boh Plantation is a must-visit for nature lovers and those looking to experience scenic beauty, but if you’re hoping for a memorable dining experience, it may not be the place to go. Still, the peaceful atmosphere and stunning views make it worth...
