We believe tea is about tradition and innovation. Rooted in a proud family heritage of tea experts, Tearaja combines that expertise with modern practices. Our promise is simple: freshness, quality, and variety in every cup. We manage the supply chain end-to-end (from garden to cup), use stringent quality checks, and fast shipping, so your tea arrives tasting as vibrant as the day it was packed.

Unmatched Freshness & Quality

Our commitment to freshness begins at the source. We partner directly with India’s finest tea gardens – from the misty slopes of Darjeeling and Assam to serene high-altitude estates – to hand-select each batch. Before any tea leaves our facilities, it passes through rigorous tasting and purity tests. This means you can expect consistent flavor, aroma, and safety in every box. Key highlights of our quality process include:

• Direct Sourcing: No middlemen or warehouses – teas are transported quickly from garden to Tearaja processing center.

• Rigorous Testing: Each batch is evaluated for aroma, taste and purity . Five stringent quality checks ensure no adulterants or off flavors make it into your cup.
• Fresh Packing: Teas are packaged within weeks of harvest in vacuum-sealed or resealable pouches to lock in freshness and aroma.    
  

Sustainability & Ethical Sourcing

At Tearaja, we’re not just passionate about great tea – we care about people and the planet too. We believe in sourcing ethically and sustainably:

• Fair Partnerships: We work closely with tea farmers and garden owners, ensuring they receive fair prices for their harvests. By cutting out unnecessary middlemen, more value goes back to the growers and workers.

• Sustainable Farming: Our partner gardens follow environmentally friendly practices – minimal pesticides, soil conservation, and ethical harvesting techniques protect biodiversity and the health of the land.

• Eco-Friendly Packaging: We strive to reduce waste. Many of our teas come in recyclable or biodegradable packaging, and we encourage customers to reuse or recycle our tins and pouches.

• Community Support: Tearaja often contributes to local communities through initiatives (such as education and healthcare) in tea-growing regions, helping improve livelihoods and sustainability for future generations.

Through these efforts, every cup of Tearaja tea represents a small step towards a greener, more equitable tea industry.

Preserving Your Tea: The Four Enemies and How to Fight Them

Quality isn’t just delivered – it’s preserved. To enjoy your Tearaja teas at their best, remember the four enemies of tea: moisture, light, oxygen, and heat. These factors can degrade flavor and aroma over time. Here’s how to protect your tea:

By combating these enemies – moisture, light, oxygen, and heat – you preserve the aroma, antioxidants, and fresh taste in every cup.
