Tasting Notes

A brisk, bright amber cup, full-bodied and with a rich malty taste complemented by hints of sweet honey.

Tea has a rich and lengthy history which stretches back many centuries. From its adoption by the dynasties of ancient China to its journey west into Europe and its Royal introduction to England, tea has always had a fascinating story to tell. What better way to recount that story than with a collection of teaware used by the great and the good throughout those years? Owned by the N Sethia Foundation, the Chitra Collection does exactly that. A remarkable archive of tea heritage, this private museum brings together works by Wedgwood, Tiffany and Co., Faberge and countless other artisans, ensuring tea's place in global history can never be underestimated.
