It is one of the best tea. We are enjoying it for last 40 years.
It is really really nice. I intend to do more shopping on Ajanta in future.
very nicely packed. Delivered in time. Contents fresh and crisp. Excellent tea.
How can I write about Lopchu tea? It is an integral part of my life and has been for 45 years. It was easy in Bombay tgen, to pick up from PK Wines or, if lucky, Sahakari Bhandar. Not slwaysceasy to get a hold of. I am grateful to Ajanta tea.
I am enjoying this tea for last ten or more years. Excellent in taste, flavour and typically attractive in aroma.
