Loved the world over, this rich and spicy tea is the ultimate comfort brew, embodying all the warmth and merriness of winter festivals. Our signature Masala Chai blend is made of a fine Assam black tea infused with a rare Keralan spice mix of cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, aniseed, cloves, black pepper and rose petals. Best cooked over a stove with milk and sugar.
Every home in India has their own recipe for Masala Chai. The central ingredients are a good quality Assam CTC (Crush, Tear, Curl) black tea, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, fennel and star anise.
The black tea base we use for our Masala Chai is harvested from the Khongea tea gardens in Assam during the second flush (harvest). It has chunky golden tips and a strength of character that stands up well against the intensity of the masala spices.
Infused with our signature blend of spices that uniquely contains black pepper and rose petals, our Masala Chai is full-bodied, brisk, bright in colour and absolutely delicious!
