How Indian Teas are Making the World Proud

Darjeeling Tea

The Darjeeling region has perfect temperatures and is located in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains at heights of between 700 to 2000 meters. The tea is released in various batches and is delicately flavoured to be one of the finest teas in the world. Darjeeling teas have that amber or golden coloured appearance. You’ll notice a fruit or floral flavour. You don’t need to add milk, sugar, or other additives.

Masala Chai

Masala Chai is a unique style that is exclusive to India and has become immensely popular throughout the world. Almost every major tea and coffee chain also sells masala chai – tracing its roots back to India. The essential ingredients are black tea, spices, sugar, and milk. The combination of spices makes the chai a delicacy, the most common being cinnamon peppercorns, ginger, and cardamom. Because it’s a mixture of several ingredients, every tea connoisseur and manufacturer will have its blend of ingredients for masala tea, which means that no two cups of masala chai will ever be the same. That element of mystery only adds to the charm.
