Where do you source your teas from?

We source our teas from renowned plantations and small individual farms in India. Within the country, we procure from 5 popular tea-producing regions, namely: Darjeeling, Assam, Nilgiri, Kangra, and Sikkim.

How are your teas packed?

After sourcing directly from plantations and farms, we bring them to our state-of-the-art tea facility in Delhi NCR, India. The teas and ingredients then go through rigorous rounds of cleaning, sorting, and quality testing to remove any impurities/dust/foreign particles. Post checkpoints for leaf size, aroma, liquor, flavors, etc. These are vacuum-packaged using sophisticated machinery. These vacuum bags are then put inside cardboard boxes, sealed, and then stored in a state-of-the-art warehouse which ensures that the teas and the ingredients remain garden-fresh and maintain their character. Further, required quantities are packed in smaller vacuum-sealed packs which are boxed in retail boxes and then sent over to our fulfillment centers located in various parts of the world.

How should I store my Tea?

How do I know the water temperature is right?
While temperature is easy to determine if you have a thermometer, how can you tell without one? The easiest trick is the boil-and-wait method below. Keep in mind these are just guidelines and not a guarantee! Hot water (75℃ - 80℃): Let the boiled water sit for about 5 minutes before use. Near-boiling (90℃ - 95℃): Let the boiled water sit for about 1 minute before use.

Can tea be reheated?

Tea should never be reheated. If you prepare tea and then forget about it, it is better to put it in the fridge or add a cube of ice to it, to chill it completely. However, if your tea has been sitting for several hours, it is better just to pour it out and prepare a fresh batch, especially if this is green tea or white tea.
