The king of Ayurvedic herbs — ashwagandha root that brings powerful adaptogenic benefits to our Ayurvedic Chai.
In Our Chai
Ashwagandha chai (ashwagandha tea) is our stress-relief adaptogen blend — rooted in centuries of Ayurveda.
Ashwagandha (meaning “strength of a horse” in Sanskrit) is one of the most important herbs in Ayurveda, used for over 3,000 years as a rejuvenating tonic. It is classified as a rasayana (rejuvenator) in ancient texts.
In our Ayurvedic CTC Chai, ashwagandha root adds a subtle earthy note while delivering its renowned adaptogenic properties — helping the body manage daily stress naturally.
You can taste Ashwagandha in our hand-blended chai range — try it in Ayurvedic CTC Chai. Each blend pairs Ashwagandha with carefully balanced complementary spices.
Learn more about the science of Ashwagandha — known botanically as Withania somnifera in the Wikipedia entry on Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha), which covers its history, botanical classification, and traditional uses.

Ashwagandha literally means "smell of horse" in Sanskrit — named both for its distinct smell and the belief that consuming it gives you the strength and vitality of a horse.
