Indian Tea Path: Assam, Darjeeling, Nilgiri, and Everyday Black Tea

Fri, 29 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Indian tea is often introduced through breakfast blends, chai, or a famous Darjeeling name, but those entry points can make the whole subject feel narrower than it is. Assam, Darjeeling, Nilgiri, Kangra, Sikkim, Dooars, Terai, and other growing areas do not all ask for the same cup. Some teas are built for strength and milk. Some are light, floral, brisk, or aromatic. Some depend heavily on harvest season. A useful Indian tea path begins by separating those jobs instead of treating every Indian black tea as a darker version of the same thing.
