Every sip reveals layers of earthy warmth and wood-fired aroma, reflecting the spirit of the forest and the skill of those who craft it.

What is Wild Tea?

Wild teas are made from tea trees (camellia Sinensis ) which are grown wild in the forest. Unlike conventional tea estate or cultivated tea bushes, wild teas are ungroomed and unfurnished by any commercial activity. The plants are not owned or managed by any commercial entity. They grow much bigger and taller, production is much lesser, picking is much more difficult because of the terrain & tree size and most WILD TEA are hand crafted.
