Turmeric
हल्दी (Haldi)
Curcuma longa
📍 Origin: Northeast India
Golden turmeric root — India's ancient spice, bringing a warm, earthy flavour and a golden colour to our Turmeric Chai.
In Our Chai
Our turmeric comes from Lakadong, Meghalaya — home to India’s highest-curcumin turmeric (7–12% curcumin content vs. the national average of 2–3%). This means every cup of our Turmeric Chai carries a deeper golden colour and a richer, earthier haldi flavour.
In our Haldi Chai, turmeric is the star — paired with black pepper for a little extra bite. The result is a golden, warming cup that tastes like a hug from your grandmother.
You can taste Turmeric in our hand-blended chai range — try it in Ayurvedic CTC Chai and Turmeric CTC Chai. Each blend pairs Turmeric with carefully balanced complementary spices.
Learn more about the science of Turmeric — known botanically as Curcuma longa in the Wikipedia entry on Curcuma longa (Turmeric), which covers its history, botanical classification, and traditional uses.
Did you know?
Lakadong turmeric from Meghalaya contains 7–12% curcumin — the highest natural concentration in the world. Most commercial turmeric has only 2–3%. That's why our Haldi Chai is so intensely golden.
