Chai ties together every Indian with a mutual love for well-brewed tea. Kerala sure knows how to tickle the taste buds of a tea-lover. From the highest tea plantations in the world at Kolukkumalai to the tiny quaint local

tea shops in every street, there is something for everyone.

Our very own in-house tea brewing genius comes from a small village near Vypin, his family has been involved in the art of brewing teas since time

immemorial.

The fizzy and effervescent childhood memory. In a pop of the Goli, one would forget the summer heat and gulp down happiness. Goli Soda was the go-to thirst quencher for people back then. Enjoy a moment of sweet nostalgia with a sip of Goli Soda.
