Prime Minister Modi of India has been serving and giving Makaibari tea to his guests, including President Obama. Tea is back in vogue in Calcutta - now known as Kolkata - as young people and the media re-discover its variety and multitude of health benefits. Recently, The Telegraph carried this delightful article capturing the various nuances of this new-found passion. Makaibari is mentioned as central to this phenomenon. You don't need to travel far to enjoy Makaibari - we are their official partners here in the U.S. and carry all their grades - Black, Green, Oolong, Silver Tips. Welcome to the tea party!
It's been a while since we've had this tea. Somehow it seemed to slip out of our sight as we found some new resources. But when I was searching for some great teas and Dragonwell came up I couldn't help but remember how much we loved it. I am so glad we've rediscovered the pleasure of this wonderful, clean, smooth and refreshing tea. We love it just as much as we ever have. <3
Hello Kristine! A balanced, fresh cup and it gets sweeter with the 2nd and 3rd infusion. Glad you re-discovered it.
