Chai blends made with strong Ceylon black tea and spices that Sri Lanka also grows: cardamom, Ceylon cinnamon, cloves and black pepper, with ginger. Karak chai, the strong milky tea popular across the Gulf, is usually made from a strong broken or CTC tea, often with cardamom. Masala chai adds a wider mix of spices.

Blends

• Karak blend: strong black tea, with or without cardamom
• Masala chai: black tea with cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, cloves and pepper
• Your own recipe and spice ratio

Formats

Loose blends in bulk for cafes and karak shops, or tea bags and retail packs under your brand. Tell us your recipe or the product you sell now and we match it on the sample.

Who buys it

Karak cafes and tea shops in the Gulf, food-service distributors, and tea brands with a chai range. The tea and spices come from Sri Lankan producers, and blending in Sri Lanka keeps both ingredients from one origin.
