Story Behind This Chai

Nestled in Kerala’s mist-covered Western Ghats, Wayanad is a land where spice and serenity meet. Known as the Queen of Spices, cardamom grows abundantly here, filling the air with its cooling fragrance.

In every roadside chai kadai (tea stall), locals brew tea with freshly crushed cardamom — a daily ritual that feels as grounding as it is refreshing.

Our Wayanad Cardamom Chai captures that spirit. Crafted from bold Assam CTC tea and hand-crushed Wayanad cardamom pods, it’s a cup that’s bold yet soothing, aromatic yet balanced — a pure taste of Kerala’s spice-scented charm.

YOU ASKED WE ANSWERED

What do you mean by CTC tea?

CTC stands for Crush, Tear, Curl — a method used to process black tea leaves into small, hard pellets. This style of tea produces a stronger, brisker brew that pairs perfectly with milk and spices, making it ideal for authentic Indian chai.

What is Masala Chai?

Masala Chai is India’s signature spiced tea — a mix of strong black tea and aromatic spices like cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves, and black pepper, brewed with milk and sugar for a warm, comforting cup.

What gives this chai its unique flavor?

The secret lies in hand-crushed cardamom pods sourced from Wayanad’s spice plantations. Their fresh, floral aroma blends seamlessly with strong Assam CTC tea, creating a cup that’s fragrant, smooth, and deeply satisfying.

How is this chai different from other flavored chais in the market?

Unlike typical flavored teas that use artificial cardamom essence, our Wayanad Cardamom Chai is made with real, crushed cardamom pods — never flavoring oils. Blended in small batches and vacuum-sealed at source, it delivers purity and freshness you can taste.

Can I brew this chai without milk?

Yes — without milk, you’ll experience a lighter, aromatic version where the crisp freshness of cardamom really shines.

Does this chai contain caffeine?

Yes. It contains about 30–50 mg of caffeine per cup, providing a gentle energy boost without being overpowering.

Are there any added flavors or preservatives?

No. This chai is 100% natural, made only with real tea and spices — no artificial colors or flavoring.

When is the best time to enjoy this chai?

Perfect for mid-morning breaks or post-meal refreshment, when you crave something soothing yet energizing.

Why does freshness matter in chai?

Freshness defines the cup. Our teas are vacuum-sealed at source to stay protected from light, oxygen, moisture, and heat, ensuring every sip is as aromatic and flavorful as freshly blended chai.

How do I store my chai to maintain freshness?

Store it in an airtight container, away from light, heat, and moisture. Avoid strong odors, as tea easily absorbs surrounding scents.

Enjoying this tea

Tea is packed with loads of fresh cardamom, unlike other teas that I have tried before. Very happy with purchase

Wonderful aroma & flavour

Waynad cardamom chai is an excellent product from the stable of Teabox, nice aroma & flavour

Warm and Comforting

I love cardamom in chai. I gifted some of this to a friend who is absolutely obsessed with cardamom, haha! She loved it. It was very warming and soothing, with the natural sweet undertone that cardamom brings. It didn't pop as much as some of the spicier ones, so I wouldn't drink it as often, but that's only a matter of personal preference. I would definitely reach for this one if I was feeling under the weather, though, rather than my spicy favorites.

Great flavor

I drink this one when I want a rich, soothing flavor - especially on a cold day.

Delicious

Beautiful aroma.

Chai time best time!

Love starting my day with fresh cardamom tea!
