About Leaf & Sip:
A Journey Through India’s Tea Culture
Our Story
Leaf & Sip was born from a simple idea: to celebrate India’s tea houses as living stories of culture, tradition, and community. Tea in India is not just a drink — it is a ritual of connection, a pause in the day, and a bridge between generations.
From the misty hills of Darjeeling to the bold flavors of Assam and the floral aromas of Nilgiri, every region has its own tale to tell. We bring together these regional treasures in one place, so you can explore the diverse ways India enjoys its most beloved beverage.
Our Mission
At Leaf & Sip, we are dedicated to preserving and sharing the essence of India’s tea traditions. We believe that each cup of tea holds a story — of growers, artisans, and communities who keep this heritage alive. Our mission is to create a platform where travelers, tea lovers, and culture seekers can discover the beauty of regional tea houses and the soulful experiences they offer.
