Description

Packed with powerful antioxidants like theaflavins and catechins, Black Tea supports heart health, improves mental alertness, and aids digestion. It also plays a role in reducing stress and inflammation in the body. Regular consumption can help maintain healthy cholesterol levels and improve metabolism, making it a natural companion to a healthy lifestyle.

History

The origins of Black Tea date back to ancient China during the Ming Dynasty, where it was known as "red tea" due to its reddish infusion. It gained global popularity when British traders introduced it to Europe in the 17th century. In India, black tea cultivation flourished under the British Raj, particularly in Assam and Darjeeling, establishing it as a global export. Today, India is one of the largest producers of Black Tea, and it remains a cultural staple in many households across the world.
