Nilgiri Hibiscus Tea | Tea Dust | Silver Oak Tea Factory Ooty

Key Features & Benefits

• Premium Nilgiri Tea Dust Base Our black tea dust, harvested from high-altitude Nilgiri plantations, provides a robust, malty foundation that complements the natural tartness of hibiscus, resulting in a balanced and full-bodied infusion.
• Vibrant Hibiscus Infusion Hibiscus petals are known for their rich crimson hue and naturally tangy flavor. Beyond its beauty in the cup, hibiscus delivers a dose of vitamin C, minerals, and anthocyanins—potent antioxidants that support heart health, lower blood pressure, and boost immunity.
• Handcrafted in Ooty’s Cool Climate The crisp mountain air and mineral-rich soil of the Nilgiris yield tea leaves of exceptional quality. At Silver Oak Tea Factory, our team handpicks the top leaves, processes them using traditional rolling and oxidation, and blends them with sun-dried hibiscus flowers for an all-natural, chemical-free tea experience.
• Natural Wellness & Hydration Hibiscus tea is naturally caffeine-free, but when combined with our Nilgiri black tea dust, you get the perfect balance of a mild caffeine lift and soothing floral refreshment—making it ideal for any time of day. The combination helps in digestion, supports metabolism, and provides a hydrating alternative to sugary drinks.
