We are driven by a mission to connect tea drinkers to the origins of our teas. For us, that is the essence of being a direct trade importer. Rishi’s tea buyers travel the world every year, collaborating with artisan tea farmers during the peak growing seasons. This allows us to source organic teas and botanicals of an epicurean caliber, infusing everything we create with a signature quality and story. In that adventurous spirit, we invite you to Taste True Tea.
Fuller Flavor / Deeper Aroma / Richer Body
Introducing the Novel Knit Tea Bag
Unlike common paper tea bags – which strip away the flavour and aroma of tea – the Rishi tea bag features a novel knit material designed to provide a truer infusion of the organic teas and herbal ingredients. The result is an incredibly aromatic, full-bodied cup that tastes just as rich as loose leaf tea.
• Flavor Story •
Masala Chai is a spiced tea beverage with roots in ancient India, where traditional spice blends known as karha were mixed with black tea, milk and sugar, Rishi’s famously spicy Masala Chai is balanced & energizing when brewed either straight up or in the classic way with milk and sugar to taste.

• Origin Profile •
Origin: Guatemala
Ingredient Highlight: Cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum)
Harvest Season: September
Sourcing Notes:
Cardamom is one of the world’s rarest spices, treasured for its uplifting, almost mystical aromatics. The cracked pods and fragrant seeds of cardamom enhance the lofty character of Rishi’s Masala Chai. Cardamom (“ilaychi” in Hindi) was a key element in traditional karha blends for stimulating circulation and calming digestion.
