このコンテンツについて
It’s scalding hot, sweet, kadak — and proudly Indian. But can India really lay claim to chai?
Hosts Jimmy, Kavya, and Atharva trace the journey of tea from the jungles near the Indo-China border to the boiling kettles of Indian railway stations. From its ancient medicinal uses in China to the British ‘discovery’ of wild tea bushes in Assam, this episode brews up a storm of fun facts, folk songs, and forgotten histories.
We learn about Camellia sinensis, the dark legacy of British tea plantations and indentured labour, and the surprising role of Buddhist monks and Taoist philosophers in tea’s rise. The hosts also spill juicy trivia: why all teas come from the same plant, how iced tea rose to fame during Prohibition, and what Cha Bagan Time actually is.
From masala chai to teefee and suleimani, this episode celebrates India’s deep love for chai while reminding us of its complex and global roots.
Sip, listen, reflect.
