Rejuvenating the Century-Old Family Tea Blending Legacy
A journey through a century of precise craftsmanship, rooted in the heart of India, and dedicated to the unparalleled art of bespoke tea blending.
इतिहास
From the discreet blending studio of AmberTips in colonial Bombay to the trusted source for India's foremost tea companies, our story is one of enduring excellence built on proprietary artistry.
The Genesis
Bombay (Mumbai), India
In the bustling heart of Bombay (now Mumbai), the brothers Rajaram Kashinath Navare and Madhav Kashinath Navare established a specialized blending studio under the original brand "AmberTips." Rejecting the constraints of singular estates, their mission was pure: to master the custom blend. This established the foundational principle that tea is a meticulous, customized art form.
Cult Following
Colonial India
"AmberTips" quickly earned a reputation for discretion and superior quality. Our clientele was the most demanding in the region: discerning British residents and true Indian tea lover connoisseurs who understood the difference between mass production and premium, hand-picked, custom blending. The demand for our classy, classic, and premium taste profiles drove the business's initial, organic expansion.
Independence & Trust
New India
Following India's independence, the Navare family's blending expertise proved invaluable. "AmberTips" began quietly supplying its proprietary, customized blends to one of the Leading Business Houses and established Tea Companies in India. This trust affirmed our position not just as retailers, but as masters of the blending craft—the hidden architects behind some of the nation's most recognized tea profiles.
Scale & Specialization
India
During this pivotal period, the business scaled up its B2B operations significantly. We became the trusted, silent partner supplying truckloads of specialized tea powder to one of India's pre-eminent business tycoons and top tea brands. This era cemented our role as a major, yet discreet, force in the industry, proving our ability to maintain customized quality at a commercial scale.
Legacy Reclaimed
