GC Orthodox Tea -1927

Orthodox tea is a long-leaf tea variety that is globally cherished for superior black tea. It gets the name “orthodox” from the centuries-old processing methods used for transforming it from freshly picked tender tea leaves to crisp black tea leaves. 

Orthodox tea’s meaning translates to terms such as ‘classic tea,’ ‘heritage tea,’ and other terms that hint at the British era when tea production started in India and gained immense popularity. The terms “orthodox tea” and “black tea” are synonymous with each other and are used interchangeably across the world.
