FAQS
This brew is a cultural gem of the Kashmiri tradition, locally called qehwa. While it originates from Kashmir, the name kahwa comes from Arabic language. It is a humble green tea that is not brewed for more than 30 sec. It is brewed with cinnamon, cardamom, saffron, clove, rose petals and roasted almonds.
We recommend a certain temperature (80-85 C; 90-95 C) for the fresh oxygen rich filtered water to be boiled at the time of brewing the tea. This is only a guide and precision without a thermometer is challenging. You can simply boil and see for yourself. Boiling water is at 100 C, if you leave it for 30 sec it should be around 90-95 C, if you leave it for 40-45 sec it should be around 85-90 C and for 1 minute leave water at around 80-85 C.
Spoon measured the quantity of tea in the tea maker/pot. Pour boiled water (150 ML) over the tea leaves (2g). Steep for suggested time (3-4 minutes). Strain & sweeten as per choice. Pour it in a cup and enjoy the #PluckToCup experience.
