FAQ
TEA
Where are the teas from?
We source our teas and coffee from the finest tea gardens and bean belts from Darjeeling, Assam, Nilgiri in India. The teas then go through rigorous rounds of cleaning, sorting, quality testing to remove any impurities/dust/foreign particles. Teas then pass through a final 10+ quality checkpoints for leaf size, aroma and flavour. We further craft them into unique blends.

What is the allergy advisory for your teas?
Allergy advisories are specific to each blend, and differ as per the flavour. Visit the product page to know more.
Is your Tea Gluten free?

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.
How long should I brew my teas?
Tea should be brewed for 2-3 minutes, depending on how strong you like your tea. By this time it will lose some heat and would be approximately 80-90 degrees, which is the required water temperature for lighter teas.
Tea is best consumed six minutes after it has been brewed.
