How we brew it
Good tea forgives a lot. A few simple measures get you most of the way.
Black
Premium CTC Tea
The Indian classic chai. The best way to brew it is the way you love it — everyone has their own way to make kadak milk chai. My choice: add water and milk in a 2:1 ratio. Boil it and add your sweetener. When it starts boiling, add a teaspoon of chai patti and let it boil for some time on a simmered flame. Filter it and enjoy. You can add your choice of spices while boiling the tea.
Our Special Tea Masala is the blend for this — add it while the chai boils.
Green
Premium Whole Leaf Green Tea
Just infuse the green tea leaves in hot water for 1.5–2 minutes. Filter it and enjoy.
Black
Premium Long Leaf Orthodox Tea Leaves
Infuse half a teaspoon in hot water for 4–5 minutes. Stir, filter and enjoy.
Herbal
Premium Chamomile Flower Whole Leaf
Infuse half a teaspoon in hot water for 4–5 minutes. Filter it and enjoy. Do not add sugar, milk or any other spices.
Blends
OG Kashmiri Kawha
When the water starts boiling, add a quarter of a teaspoon and give it 10–15 seconds of boil. Now let it brew for 2–3 minutes. Add your choice of sweetener, filter it and enjoy.
Every note above is the merchant’s own, the way each tea is made at the counter on Heritage Street. Taste as it steeps and stop when it suits you. Keep your tea dry and away from light, and it will keep its character for months.
