History
Founded by Faisal Yousaf, a certified Barista, the seeds of The Chai Walah were germinated when he missed his morning cup of tea during his stint at an independent coffee roastery in England. With no tea shops around, and no knowledge on making tea, Faisal picked up the ropes of tea-making, fuelled by his nostalgia and passion to trace his Indian roots.
As Faisal started experimenting with different teas and spices, he embarked on adventures while exploring different blends. His friends and family noticed the zeal and enthusiasm behind his love for tea and motivated him to commercialize his skills.
During his extensive travels in froeign lands, Faisal learnt about tea cultures, traditional recipes handed down the generations, and the secrets of spices that he brought back home when he returned to his native land India. Armed with an unwavering resolve to change the way India experienced tea, he conducted a thorough research understanding the tea industry and its modus operandi.
The hard work bore its sweet fruit when the year 2018 saw the humble beginnings of The Chai Walah, a place where traditional flavors met a modernistic approach, in Alleppey.
The rest, as they say, is history. As of October, 2022, the brand has expanded, scaling the heights of success with its global outreach. Starting off from a sleepy town of Alleppey, The Chai Walah now serves to the global market.
