Our Story
Stories steeped in nature.
Every brand begins with a belief. Ours is this: in the forests of Assam, there are ingredients that have been trusted for centuries — herbs, spices, and botanical that feel like life itself. They deserve to be discovered.
We didn't start with a business plan. We started with a question: why are the extraordinary herbs of northeast India still so unknown in Japan — and in the world?
Tulsi, moringa, kaji nemu, turmeric — these are not exotic curiosities. They are daily rituals for millions of people, passed down through generations, quietly powerful and completely natural.
Assam gave us the ingredients. Japan gave us discipline. Together, they became Patta Tea.
We source directly from Assam — a region in northeast India that sits at the edge of the Himalayas, where the soil is rich, the climate is wild, and the botanicals are unlike anything grown anywhere else.
Then we bring them to Japan, where we blend, test, and package every product with the attention to detail that Japanese craft demands.
The name Patta comes from the Hindi word for leaf — पत्ता. A small word for something that holds so much. A leaf is where everything begins: the plant, the flavour, the ritual, the story.
How We Got Here
The idea
A question worth pursuing
We discovered the gap between how rich Assam's botanical world is, and how little of it reaches Japan. That gap felt like an opportunity — and a responsibility.
The sourcing
Finding the right ingredients
We traveled to Assam to find farmers and suppliers who share our values — people who grow with care, harvest at the right time, and believe in what the land can offer.
The blending
Months of tasting and adjusting
Each blend went through dozens of iterations. We wanted teas that were honest, distinctive, and that made you feel something — not just taste something.

Patta Tea launches in Japan
Six blends. Six feelings. One clear belief that Indian herbs deserve a place in Japanese daily life — and beyond.

Taking Patta further
Japan is just the beginning. We are building a brand that can carry these ingredients to new markets, new kitchens, and new daily rituals around the world.
The Six Blends
Each product in the Patta Tea range was designed to meet a different moment in your day — from a masala chai shared with someone you care about, to moringa that quietly restores you at the end of a long afternoon, to chamomile that eases you into the night. Whether it's in your flask at your desk or beside you as you wind down, there is a blend for every moment in your day.
We didn't make tea for the shelf. We made them for a feeling.
