Vikram Tea

India’s love affair with tea is deeply rooted in its culture, connecting people across social and cultural divides. From Mumbai’s bold cutting chai to Darjeeling’s delicate first flush, Assam’s robust brew, and Kashmir’s elegant kahwa, each region offers a unique tea experience. South India’s Nilgiri tea and hidden gems like Kangra Valley brews further enrich this diversity. Indian tea is a sensory journey, engaging sight, smell, touch, sound, and taste. More than just a drink, it’s a legacy of stories, traditions, and memories. At Vikram Tea, we celebrate this rich heritage, inviting you to savor the magic of Indian tea, one brew at a time.

Tea is more than a beverage in India; it’s a cultural phenomenon rooted in history. Originating as a medicinal brew in Assam, tea's transformation began with the British in the 19th century, who cultivated it to rival China's monopoly. Initially a colonial luxury, tea became widely accessible through chai-wallahs and local adaptations with spices, milk, and sugar, creating the beloved "chai." Today, India is a global tea leader, offering diverse blends like Darjeeling and masala chai. From traditional recipes to modern trends like chai lattes and tea tourism, tea remains an integral part of Indian life, symbolizing warmth, hospitality, and togetherness.
