Orders and delivery

Do you deliver across India?

Yes. We ship to every serviceable pincode in India.

How much does shipping cost?

Shipping is free on orders above ₹499. Below that, shipping is a flat ₹49.

How long will my order take?

We pack and ship your order from Assam within 24 hours of receiving it. Delivery usually takes 7 to 8 days, as every parcel travels from Assam.

How do I track my order?

Once your order ships, we send a tracking link by email and WhatsApp. You can also see it under My Account, Orders.

Can I change or cancel my order?

Yes, before it ships. Message us on WhatsApp with your order number. Cancel within 12 hours of ordering for a full refund; after 12 hours (but before it ships) we refund the amount minus payment gateway fees. Once shipped, an order can’t be cancelled.

Payments

How can I pay?

UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm and others), credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, RuPay), netbanking, or cash on delivery. Online payments are processed securely by Razorpay.

Do you offer cash on delivery?

Yes. Choose cash on delivery at checkout and pay when your order arrives.

Is it safe to pay on your website?

Yes. Payments go through Razorpay’s secure checkout. We never see or store your card details.

Returns and refunds

My order arrived damaged. What should I do?

We’re sorry. Send us a photo of the box and the pack on WhatsApp within 48 hours of delivery, with your order number, and we’ll give you a full refund.

My order never arrived. What happens?

If your parcel is not delivered, message us with your order number. We’ll check with the courier and give you a full refund if it can’t be delivered.

Can I return tea if I don’t like it?

No. Tea is a food product, so we only give refunds when a parcel arrives damaged, is not delivered, or the order is cancelled before it ships. If you have any feedback on a tea, we’d still love to hear it.

How long do refunds take?

Approved refunds go back to your original payment method within 5 to 7 working days. For cash on delivery orders, we refund by UPI or bank transfer.

Our tea

Where does your tea come from?

Every tea comes from Basundhara, our own small tea garden in Dhekiajuli, Assam, recognised by the Tea Board of India as a small tea grower. We never buy or mix in leaves from other gardens.

Is your tea hand-plucked?

Yes. Every leaf is plucked by hand, just two leaves and a bud, and processed in small batches.

Which tea has the most caffeine?

Assam Kadak Chai and Masala Chai are the strongest. Green, herbal and flavoured green teas have less caffeine. Each product page shows a caffeine level.

Do your flavoured teas contain artificial flavours?

No. Our flavoured teas use natural flavours with our own green tea. Each product page lists exactly what’s inside.

Which tea should I try first?

If you like chai with milk, start with Assam Kadak Chai. For something light without milk, our customers love Peach Green Tea.

Brewing and storage

How do I brew the perfect cup?

Each tea needs a different water temperature and steeping time. Our Brewing Guide has step-by-step instructions for every tea.

How should I store my tea?

Keep it sealed in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight, moisture and strong smells like spices or coffee.

How long does tea stay fresh?

Unopened packs stay fresh for up to 2 years. Once opened, enjoy within 3 months for the best flavour.
