50% discount on Castleton Estate Oolong Tea (Darjeeling), Castleton Estate White Tea (Darjeeling), Gopaldhara Estate Mao Feng style Green Tea (Darjeeling), and Glenburn Estate Green Tea (Darjeeling).

Discount lasts through the end of the month. The first two are very unique, small batch productions that do well both Western and gong fu brewed. The last two are very clean tasting, high altitude green teas from very well known Darjeeling estates.

NEW teas are also in store. These teas are carefully curated, high quality, single origin offerings from renowned estates in South Asia, spanning Darjeeling, Assam, Sikkim, and Nepal. The estates are Rohini (Darjeeling First Flush black), Temi (Sikkim 2nd Flush black, organic), Goomtee (Darjeeling 2nd Flush black), Marangi (Assam 2nd Flush black, exclusively grown for Yatra), Rong (Nepal 2nd Flush green, very unique tasting), and Sakhira (Nepal 1st Flush black).

Samplers - we have a couple. One is Darjeeling centric, while the other is beyond Darjeeling.

Look forward to sending you some teas! Have a nice week tea friends.

Vikram

Good morning. Today is Labor Day in North America. Big salute to the (primarily) women thousands of miles away in South Asia. These tea laborers are the real reason a company like Yatra Tea Company exists. I'll do my best to continue supporting these folks through this tea journey.

Today through Thursday, ALL our teas are 25% off. No code is needed. Applies to samples, full-sized teas, and samplers.

Non-US buyers, the discount applies to you as well. Contact me to work out fair shipping to you.

Thanks, enjoy the holiday in North America, and give us the opportunity to send you some teas!

Cool mornings and evenings are here in Cambridge, a sure sign that Fall is in the air. Stock up on your favorite South Asian single origin teas at Yatra Tea Company.

Now through Thursday, save 25% on any order. No code is needed.

Overseas buyers, the discount applies to you as well. I will be integrating shipping to Canada and perhaps the EU soon, but for right now I'm going the Paypal invoice route. To give you an idea of shipping rates, recent shipments of ~ 200 gms (incl. packaging) have cost ~ USD 12 to Canada and ~ USD 14 to the EU.

Just email me at info@yatrateacompany.com or PM here if you're interested!

Thanks,
Vikram

Dear tea friends – Happy Thanksgiving from Yatra Tea Company to you and yours. Too often I have focused on the struggles of running a small business and have conveniently forgotten to be thankful for being in the position to do so. So this week especially, I want to say thanks to our customers and suppliers back in South Asia. We would not exist without you!

We know you have firsts and seconds covered on turkey day. And we have you covered for thirds! Now through the end of Cyber Monday, all our products are 33% off. No code is needed.

Shop for yourselves. Shop for others. Curated single origin premium grade teas from India and Nepal await you at Yatra Tea Company.

Hello! I have't been doing a lot of discounts lately. But through Thursday January 23rd, all teas are marked down 25%. No code is needed.

Already having discussions about 2020 teas, but in the interim still a lot of good stuff at Yatra Tea Company! Our selection is not as vast as a lot of the other sites, but I can guarantee they are carefully curated, fairly priced, and high quality!

Reach out to me if you have any questions.

Hello! Hope the year has started off well for all of you. Seems like ages since I've posted here! I realised that I haven't really done much in terms of discounts so far in 2020, so now through end of day Friday, Yatra Tea Company is offering 25% off with code "Feb25" at checkout.

Even though we're in between seasons, we still have some gems in stock. An exclusive, tippy Assam from Marangi Estate, a refreshing floral First Flush Darjeeling from Rohini Estate, delicious muscatel Second Flush teas from Darjeeling's Goomtee Estate and Sikkim's Temi Estate, and an offering from Nepal's Sakhira Estate to rival the very best Darjeeling teas!

Thanks for reading and have a wonderful week.

Vikram

Hi everyone. Wow, it has been a while since I was on here! Hope everyone is doing their bit to stay safe and healthy.

New teas are on the site. Thanks to the disruption from the pandemic, sourcing proved quite tough. I am lining up some more teas to bring soon, but I'm very excited about these 5 teas!

Rohini Estate Darjeeling First Flush - most of the season's production was lost due to the lockdown in India. Late Feb and early March yielded a few invoices from which we selected this tea. Floral, but with good body and a hint of astringency to balance the cup

Havukal Estate Nilgiri and Kodanad Estate Nilgiri are two high quality Nilgiri Winter Flush teas. Smooth, creamy and with notes of stone fruit, both are flavorful teas that have enough body/kick to drink in the morning, yet are mild enough to be sipped through the day. I hadn't tried Havukal's tea before and was very pleased with the outcome. They're also very good about participating in the community

Tara Chiyabari in Nepal can hardly be called an estate. Tea production is fairly new but has grown rapidly. This semi oxidized black tea has a peppery, vegetal, smokiness to it, which is very different from the mostly floral First Flush productions I have tasted over the years. A very unique taste profile!

And finally, an Autumn Flush Darjeeling Oolong from Rohini Estate. Not gonna lie, this tea had me stumped. Subtle is a word that perhaps best describes this tea. A very mellow tea, I found that a hybrid brewing technique worked best. A higher leaf to water ratio, lower temperature, and shorter steep time yielded a lovely liquor, floral to the nose, with a sweet honey finish to taste.

I've also put together a Sampler of these 5 teas, plus the muscatel sweet Temi Estate Sikkim 2nd Flush.

Hope to get the opportunity to send some of these teas your way!

Hi Vikram

Just now I was browsing your site. You've got some nice teas there! One comment: I see a text at the bottom inviting me to subscribe to your newsletter, but there is no link, not at least in my browser (FF v80/Linux). Am I missing something??

Hello - wow, sorry for missing this comment for so long, my apologies! Thanks for your kind words about the teas I sourced.

Interesting you don't see the option to enter an email - it should look like the image below. Wonder what the issue could be?
