Tulsi
तुलसी (Tulsi)
Ocimum tenuiflorum
📍 Origin: India
Sacred holy basil — revered in Ayurveda as "The Incomparable One" for its adaptogenic and immunity-boosting properties.
In Our Chai
Tulsi chai (holy basil tea) is a cherished immunity blend in Indian households, supporting daily wellness through ayurveda.
Tulsi (holy basil) is not just an herb — it’s a cornerstone of Indian wellness tradition, grown in households across the country for both spiritual and medicinal purposes. We use a blend of Krishna Tulsi and Rama Tulsi for their complementary flavour profiles.
In our Tulsi Ginger Chai, tulsi’s peppery, slightly minty flavour combines with fiery ginger to create a powerful immunity-boosting brew. It’s the chai equivalent of a warm blanket during monsoon season.
You can taste Tulsi in our hand-blended chai range — try it in Tulsi Ginger CTC Chai and Ayurvedic CTC Chai. Each blend pairs Tulsi with carefully balanced complementary spices.
Learn more about the science of Tulsi — known botanically as Ocimum tenuiflorum in the Wikipedia entry on Ocimum tenuiflorum (Tulsi), which covers its history, botanical classification, and traditional uses.
Tulsi is considered the most sacred plant in Hinduism — called "The Incomparable One" and "Mother Medicine of Nature." Nearly 100 million Indian households grow tulsi at their doorstep for spiritual and health reasons.
