Ma’s recipe.
Our family’s Kehwah.
Ma made the first blend for her sons away from home. Pa brought the stories of Kashmir. I built Kehwah so we could share that cup with you.

How it began
It started with Ma
A taste of home,
wherever we were.
Ma learned to make Kehwah from her mother, grandmother and aunts in Kashmir. Saffron, cardamom, cinnamon and almond were familiar ingredients long before they appeared on one of our packs.
When my brother and I were living away from home, she made an unsweetened Instant blend we could prepare with hot water. That was our first product.

Ma and Pa
There’s always time for a cup.
At home, Kehwah is something we make for ourselves and offer to anyone who drops in.

Kashmir, through Pa’s stories
A home we carry
with us.
Pa grew up in Rajbagh, in a home his father and uncle built for their joint family. Our family later moved from Kashmir to Jammu, where I was born, and then to Noida.
The homes changed. The food, the stories and the habit of offering a cup stayed with us.

Recipes worth
sharing.
We started Kehwah in Noida in April 2022. Ma and I developed the blends together, tasting for fragrance, flavour on the tongue and the finish. Our immediate family tried the early versions before we shared them with a wider circle of around 25–30 tasters.
Today, our Kashmiri blends sit alongside floral, herbal and everyday teas. We make our blends in small batches. Our nine teas and both Instant blends contain no artificial flavours or colours and no added preservatives. Each has its own ingredients and brewing time.
Our tea cartons hold individually wrapped plant-based pyramid tea bags. For a quicker cup, Instant Kehwah is ready with hot water and a 20-second stir.

Our signature blend
Saffron, spice and green tea.
Kashmiri Kehwah combines saffron, cardamom, cinnamon, almond and green tea. Kesar keeps the saffron and spice without tea leaf; Rose brings a floral note to a green-tea base.
