I love how fragrant this tea is! The subtle sweetness and cooling effect of the paan make it incredibly refreshing. I usually enjoy it in the evening when I want something light but flavorful. Plus, knowing it’s packed with antioxidants makes it even better. It’s unlike any other green tea I’ve had before—Tale of Teas did not disappoint!

Ever since I started drinking your teas, I just could not go back to drinking my usual old teas. Drinking your teas daily has become a habit now. I specially love the flavor of EARL GREY.

I’ve struggled with bloating and indigestion for years, but this tea has been a game-changer. The blend of herbs is so calming and gentle on the stomach. I drink it after heavy meals, and it works like magic! Plus, the taste is pleasantly refreshing with hints of mint, triphala and lemon grass. Highly recommend! I will be ordering more soon.

Origin of Tea

Tea originated in China around 2737 BCE, where it was discovered by Emperor Shen Nong, who reportedly found the beverage when tea leaves blew into his boiling water. Initially valued for its medicinal properties, tea spread across Asia and became integral to various cultures, including Japan and India. By the 16th century, European traders, notably the Portuguese and Dutch, introduced tea to Europe. In the 17th century, the British East India Company played a crucial role in popularizing it in England. Today, tea is one of the most consumed beverages globally, cherished for its taste, health benefits, and cultural significance.
