NorthTEAs Global began in a tin-roofed factory near Dibrugarh, the way most Assam stories begin — with a small garden, a wood-fired drier, and a long apprenticeship. Four generations later, we still cup every batch by hand. The only thing that has changed is who we ship it to.
Today, our tea travels in twenty-foot containers to forty-two countries. We supply roasters in Hamburg, retailers in London, hotel groups in Dubai, private-label brands in California, and instant-tea producers in Cairo. Every order leaves with a tasting card signed by our master blender — the same way it did when our grandfather sent his first chests down the Brahmaputra in 1962.
We sit on three sides of the trade: as a sourcing house with garden relationships built over decades; as a blending floor with a custom-recipe practice; and as an export desk that handles documentation, compliance, and marine logistics in-house. There are no middlemen between you and the leaf.
We are not the biggest exporter in Assam. We are the one that picks up the phone.
We own the relationship from garden to gate. No traders, no commission layers.
Cupping notes, lab reports, traceability — every shipment travels with paperwork.
Forty-two countries, fifteen years, zero rejected containers at destination.
