Greetings from Yatra Tea Company! I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season! As the year comes to an end, here is our final promotion of 2020:

25% off all products (except the gift card) with code BYE20 through the end of the year.

For those not familiar with us, ours is small curated selection of South Asian teas with a focus on single origin, orthodox productions from Assam, Darjeeling, Nilgiri, and Nepal.

If you want a taste of all the teas we offer, our 10 tea sampler is ideal - 4 cups per tea, enough to determine which ones suit your palate.

Please do consider leaving us a review for teas you've tried, liked, or maybe haven't liked. As a one-person company with little to no marketing dollars, your reviews tell others we're worth a look. And your honest feedback tells us what's working, and what's not.

Thanks for reading - wish you all a super start to 2021!

Oh dear, I am so sorry for missing this altogether. I haven't been very active on Tea Forum - please accept my apologies.

I am sure you have all the info you need on First Flush Darjeelings by now! Did you end up drinking any Darjeelings this season? I sourced a couple of organic FF and SF Darjeelings from Sungma and Puttabong this year. The Sungma was a late FF tea - markedly less astringency, slightly more mouthfeel than earlier plucked FF Darjeelings. The Puttabong was a quintiessential SF with strong muscatel flavor, something I've generally found elusive in even those SF Darjeelings marketed as muscatel. Its a delicious tea!

Hope you're having a nice Thanskgiving break!

Hello hello! Its been months since I posted here. Well, now I have some reason to! I've sourced a few new teas from 2022. Now through Friday, all orders ship free. No code is needed.

Castleton Estate's First Flush Darjeeling is a slightly finicky tea to brew, but is quintessentially Darjeeling. Light and floral with good body and balancing astirngency.

Puttabong Estate's Second Flush Darjeeling is deeply muscatel. Not the elusive may have notes of muscatel second flushes. I sourced this tea last year and was blown away by how front and centre the muscatel flavor was. In my opinion, Puttabong can do no wrong, but try it for yourself.

Halmari Estate's Second Flush award winning Assam needs little introduction. Consistently the best Assam Orthodox produced in India.

This last tea is exclusively produced for Yatra by my good friend at Marangi Estate in Assam. A very smooth, tippy Assam designed to be drunk as is, but does well with a splash of milk. I sourced this tea first in 2020 and not surprisingly, it was a very well received. This year's harvest is no different.

Look forward to the opportunity to send you some directly sourced, curated single origin tea!

Happy Thanksgiving! Thanks for supporting Yatra Tea Company for over 5 years now. I am very grateful for your patronage.

Our Thanksgiving sale is on now through Nov 28th. "Thanksgiving Thirds" discounts your order by 33%, no code is required. I've become hyperfocused, curating only a handful of teas, but I consider these to be top notch.

Castleton Estate 1st Flush Darjeeling is a light, floral Spring tea. A pleasing aroma with a quintessential Darjeeling 1st Flush taste. Clean with balancing astringency. Delicious both hot or cold brewed.

Puttabong Estate 2nd Flush Darjeeling is a deeply muscatel Summer tea. Muscatel is a very elusive flavor and while most 2nd Flush Darjeelings are marketed as such, I've found that few have the deep muscatel sweetness that Puttabong posseses. Wonderful tea for fans of 2nd Flush productions.

Halmari Estate 2nd Flush Assam is an award winning Summer tea from the world renowned Halmari Estate. A limited clonal production, this is a must try for any Assam aficionado.

Marangi Estate 2nd Flush Assam is a tip heavy exclusive production made especially for Yatra by our friends at Marangi Estate. This Assam is intended to be drunk as is. Smooth and flavorful.

Thanks for reading. Hope you enjoy Thanksgiving in the company of your loved ones. Look forward to sending you some teas!
