Teas With A Difference
Rydak, the brand name tea experts swear by, is one of the last proud torch-bearers of the rich legacy, regal art and life philosophies that defined the tea landscape of India in the 19th and 20th century. Tea lovers ourselves, our teas represent the haven of tea-drinking erudition. Sold in select packets in teasingly small lots, we bring the freshness and fragrance of the parent bush to your tables. Born ourselves in the tempestuous albeit regal and memorable years of our Independence struggle, in 1898, our mammoth family now combines inclusions of over 3 quarters of the last century, with mergers of the Baradighi, Mangaldai, Central Cachar, Rydak, and other tea companies from 1940 to 1960, to produce what the corporates call conglomerates, and we call family.
Born ourselves in 1898, our mammoth family combines inclusions of over 3 quarters of the last century, with mergers of the Baradighi, Mangaldai, Central Cachar, Rydak, and other tea companies from 1940 to 1960, to produce what the corporates call conglomerates, and we call family. In 1948, we joined the ever-expanding neighbourhoods of the Jardine Henderson group of companies and become the greatest pride of their many diverse businesses.
We are a team of the most erudite men of letters, remnants of the tea-tasting days of the Raj, the fresh face of youth that run our estates, the experienced faces that an entire industry banks upon, and the minds that continue to re-invent Rydak in newer avatars.
Our lives at Rydak are a universe in themselves. Home to thousands of people, and the lifeblood of generations that have served us, the tastes, insignias, corporate culture and rich colonial history of Rydak Syndicate are collector’s items in themselves.

“Rainy days should be spent at home with a cup of tea and a good book. We don't know about the book, but we can gladly give you the tea“
NOTES FROM RYDAK
“ Writing is a job, a talent, but it's also the place to go in your head. It is the imaginary friend you drink your tea with in the afternoon.. “
