in case you’re curious...

organic loose-leaf CTC black tea and lots of freshly crushed cardamom. no powders, no fillers, no added flavors or sugar - just real chai.

the tea comes from chota tingrai farm in india, and the cardamom from chemparathy estate, a family-owned cardamom farm in kerala, india. just high-quality ingredients from family farms we trust.

most grocery store chai is made with tea dust and has been sitting on shelves for months (or even years).

ours is the opposite: fresh-harvest, single-origin organic assam tea blended with real crushed cardamom. the result is a bold, golden cup with the perfect balance of tea and elaichi, every single time.

a note from the founders

hi friends,

we started elaichi co. because we believe chai has a way of bringing people together.

that belief grew into two cafes in berkeley and san francisco, and eventually into packaging the exact same chai so you can make it at home.

our hope is simple: that every cup gives you a reason to slow down and share a little time with someone you care about.

thanks for letting us be a small part of that.

warmly,
mojo & zainab
