Most teas in the US supermarket were designed to make a good glass of iced tea – not a rich and flavorful cup of hot spiced tea or chai. The market was saturated with various teas and coffees, but no product was capable to fit the unique taste of spiced Indian chai. Seeing an untapped market for premium quality tea, we created Tea India. Tea India caters to tea patrons in search of a true cup of authentic chai.
We use only the finest ingredients
It’s not just any form of regular tea. We wanted to capture the true quality, taste, and experience of Indian chai in our product, so we went to the source: Assam.
Located in the north-east corner of India, Assam produces teas which are famous for their fullness, flavor and brightness. The best Assam teas are produced during the months of May and June – just before the onset of the monsoons. The teas from this period are referred to as “second flush” teas.
Our Blends
We take chai pretty seriously. Our professional tea tasters are sommeliers of the tea business. Tea India’s professional tea tasters taste several hundred cups of tea before choosing the right blend.
We combine premium quality Assam tea leaves with natural spices from all over the world. We maintain consistency in quality by tasting each batch of chai so you can expect the same, consistently delicious, and refreshing cup of tea each time.

Red Rose Tea was first blended by Theodore Estabrooks in the 1890s, dedicated to producing a quality blended tea that was consistent from cup to cup. For over 100 years, we’ve kept that promise and remain committed to providing a perfectly-balanced, great-tasting tea.
