Founded in India in 2023, Hillbar® by Cirrus Tea emerged from a deep passion for authentic and high-quality tea. Our mission is rooted in a desire to serve the Indian community with teas that truly reflect the rich heritage of India’s most celebrated tea regions-Assam and Darjeeling. Fascinated by the diversity in flavors, colors, and traditions of tea across the world, we set out to create a brand that blends global inspiration with Indian excellence. All our teas are 100% Indian in origin, grown in the lush, high-altitude slopes of the Himalayan foothills where the climate and soil create the perfect conditions for tea cultivation. We focus on sustainable practices, with every tea leaf handpicked at the right moment and packed in small batches to ensure freshness, flavor, and aroma are perfectly preserved.
