Like alchemists, they understood the importance of water quality, temperature and brewing time - an art that is slowly fading.It is this art that Newby seeks to revive, presenting the finest teas and honouring millennia of tradition with a one-of-a-kind museum collection.Curated as carefully as our teas, Newby's Chitra Collection chronicles the very history of tea in priceless objects.
