Looking for a good cup of tea? Radhikas Fine Teas and Whatnots is the place for you. We speak to founder Radhika Batra Shah.
You’ve been a pioneer of fine teas in India for over a decade. How did it all start?
The trigger was the desperation for a fine cup of tea. Having been brought up in a typical Punjabi household, in which so many important activities and the best of conversations revolve around a cup of tea, it was but natural to crave a good cuppa outside home too. But there weren’t any outlets in Mumbai that served a good cup of tea. This vacuum was an opportunity to jump in and get started.
What is Radhikas Fine Teas and Whatnots all about?
Our teas are personalised and, therefore, called fine. As a tea sommelier, I am trained to understand blends. I travel and source teas myself, work with the gardeners and curate the blends. We do not serve the mass produced CTC (crush, tear, curl) variety of tea.
