Welcome to the world of Once Upon a Tea
I come from Dehradun — where the air is quiet, the mountains slow you down, and tea is never just a drink, it is a feeling. That feeling stayed with me, and slowly took shape as Once Upon a Tea.
Our premium loose leaf tea cans were created for those who want tea in its truest form — whole leaves, unfolding slowly, bringing depth, aroma, and presence.
Alongside, I created hand-stitched muslin tea bags because I never found the comfort in dipping plastic into something so pure. These are for moments when you need ease, without compromising honesty in your cup.
Everything here is made with intention — to feel refined, stay kind to the planet, and remain true to what tea really is. I hope each cup becomes a quiet pause… one that belongs only to you.
With love,
Kanika Kotnala.
