Founded in 1927 on the streets of New Delhi, chaiiwala® has nearly 100 years of history and tradition.

Some secrets aren’t as secret as you think… 👀☕️

While very few people know the exact ratios and processes that make our signature Chaii so signature…

It’s no secret that we never powder or freeze our tea, and that we only use the very best tea from a single-source farm in the heart of the Chaii capital, Assam…

These are the colours of our signature Karak Chaii ground blend. 🌱☕️

Fresh. Flavourful. Delicious.

Because we know at Chaiiwala, Chaii isn’t just a hot drink — it’s an excuse to bring people together. Whether it’s an impromptu Karak on the way to work or a late-night catch-up with friends to spill the tea… There’s always time for Chaii. 🫖✨
