Why Nilgiris Tea is Different
Why Nilgiris Tea is Different
The Nilgiris — India's Blue
Mountains — grows tea at 6,000 feet above sea level, where the combination of
cool temperatures (15–20°C year-round), two annual monsoons, and mineral-rich
volcanic soil creates growing conditions found nowhere else in India.
At this altitude, tea plants
grow more slowly. Slower growth concentrates the natural compounds —
polyphenols, catechins, aromatic oils — that give Nilgiris tea its
characteristic brightness, natural sweetness, and clean, clear liquor.
What makes OotyMade's tea range
unique is traceability. We source from named estates — Kannavarai, Homewood,
Darmona, Homedale, Silver Oak — so you know exactly which garden your tea comes
from. No anonymous blends. No imported material. Just the Blue Mountains.
All teas are packed fresh at source and dispatched within 48 hours of
your order.

How to Brew the Perfect Cup
FOR MILK CHAI
(Traditional Indian Method):
1. Add 200ml water to a saucepan
and bring to boil
2. Add 1 heaped teaspoon (3–4g)
of tea powder
3. Simmer for 2–3 minutes on
medium heat
4. Add 50–75ml full-fat milk
5. Simmer for 1 more minute
6. Add sugar to taste, strain,
and serve immediately
FOR BLACK TEA
(Plain, Without Milk):
1. Heat water to 90–95 degrees
Celsius (just below boiling)
2. Add 1 teaspoon tea powder per
200ml
3. Steep for 2–3 minutes maximum
4. Strain immediately into your
cup
5. Add lemon or honey if desired
— never milk with black tea
FOR ICED TEA:
1. Brew double-strength (2
teaspoons per 200ml)
2. Steep for 3 minutes
3. Strain directly over a glass
full of ice
4. Add lemon slices and honey
Nilgiris tea stays crystal clear when iced — no cloudiness.

Freshness, Storage and Shelf
Life
SHELF LIFE: 12–18 months from
packing date when stored correctly.
All tea is packed fresh at
source and vacuum-sealed or airtight-sealed before dispatch.
STORAGE: Store in an airtight
container in a cool, dry place away from:
— Direct sunlight (degrades
chlorophyll and antioxidants)
— Moisture (causes mold and
off-flavors)
— Strong odours (tea absorbs
surrounding aromas rapidly)
— Heat above 30 degrees Celsius
BEST PRACTICE: Transfer to a
ceramic or glass airtight container on receipt.
A dedicated tea tin stored in a
kitchen cabinet is ideal.
SIGNS OF FRESHNESS: Fresh Nilgiris
tea has a bright, clean aroma on opening.
If the aroma has faded
significantly, the tea is past its prime — though still safe to consume.
DISPATCH: All OotyMade teas are dispatched within 48 hours of order
confirmation.
