Bishal Tea Traders

You’ll find Bishal Tea Traders at 7/1A on Bentinck Street. It’s an old part of the city, and the building reflects that. We’ve got high ceilings and windows that don’t always close all the way, especially when it’s humid. It’s a place with a lot of history, and you can almost smell the tea as soon as you walk in the door. We aren’t a big company with hundreds of employees. It’s just a small team of us who really know our tea. We spend our days tasting different batches and deciding what’s good enough to sell. Bentinck Street is always loud with horns and people shouting, but inside the shop, it’s a bit more peaceful. We have rows of jars and sacks piled up against the walls. We don’t bother with fancy displays or clever advertisements. People find us because they know we’ve been here for years and they trust what we do. Sometimes we run out of a certain type of tea and have to wait for the next shipment to arrive, but that’s just the nature of the business. We don't use a lot of technical terms or try to impress anyone with big words. We just talk about the tea in a way that makes sense. It’s a practical, no-nonsense environment. We work hard, we drink a lot of tea ourselves, and then we go home. That’s about all there is to it.
