Inspired By

Inspired by the misty Nilgiri mountains and the lingering scent of a rose garden near the Glendale tea estate, our blenders set out to capture that fleeting beauty in a cup.

This tea is crafted through an age-old, delicate process — layering freshly harvested black tea leaves with jasmine blossoms over several days. During this time, the leaves naturally absorb the soft floral aroma of jasmine. Once this harmony is achieved, the tea is infused with dried rose petals and cardamom at our Siliguri facility, adding richness and warmth to its bouquet.

A poetic blend that reflects the serenity, fragrance, and grace of the Nilgiris.

YOU ASKED WE ANSWERED

What makes Mountain Rose Black different from other floral teas?

Unlike most floral blends made with flavoring or artificial essences, this tea is naturally layered with real jasmine blossoms over several days — a traditional Nilgiri technique — and then infused with rose petals and cardamom for depth and balance.

Does Mountain Rose Black contain caffeine?

Yes. Like all black teas, it contains moderate caffeine (about 40–70 mg per cup), offering a natural energy boost without the sharp crash of coffee.

Can I enjoy it as an iced tea?

Absolutely. Its floral notes and mild sweetness make it one of our most refreshing iced teas.

What is the best time to drink this tea?

Ideal for mid-mornings or relaxed evenings — when you need a calming, aromatic lift without overwhelming intensity.

Does this tea help with digestion or relaxation?

Yes. Cardamom and rose have mild digestive and calming properties, while jasmine adds a naturally soothing aroma that helps reduce stress and tension.

What foods pair well with this tea?

Its floral, aromatic profile pairs beautifully with light pastries like scones, almond biscotti, or fruit tarts. It also complements mild cheeses, cucumber sandwiches, and delicate desserts such as dark chocolate or rose-flavored sweets.

Can I add milk or sugar to this tea?

It’s best enjoyed without milk to let the floral nuances shine, though a touch of honey pairs beautifully if you prefer sweetness.

How should I store this tea for freshness?

Keep it in an airtight container, away from light, moisture, and strong odors to preserve its natural aroma and flavor.

Excellent Tea

One of the best tea ever. Mind subtle flavour. Beautiful rose tinge along with natural tea flavour.

It has a distinct and unmatched taste. And the unique triangle tea bag.... I have become a fan of this....

Nice, light black tea

This delicately flavored black tea makes for a wonderful counterpoint to the malty assam teas that can be hard on the stomach and, for me, deadening to the palate.

Aromatic

This tea has a soothing aroma and a light, floral taste.

Good

Love this tea

Tried the sample of this tea and had to buy the tin. Lovely tea, but it's the smell that I love the most as it reminds me of places I've visited in childhood.
