🌱🍵 Our journey with Indian Royal Brew started with a passion for Indian + premium + organic teas being sold in New Zealand, and it was amazing to see so many people connect with our story and teas.

From the rich flavours of our blends to the careful selection of ingredients, we loved explaining what makes our teas special. The response was overwhelming, with many attendees choosing to take a piece of our journey home with them.

A big thank you to everyone who stopped by and bought our teas and shared our vision for a greener, more connected world through the simple pleasure of a great cup of tea. Your support means the world to us! 🌍💚

Thank you, @avoncityford , for helping us with the event.❤️
