Miracle Tea & Spices Co.

We are located at 21, R. N. Mukherjee Road in the Dalhousie area. It’s an old part of the city with a lot of history and old-fashioned buildings. Miracle Tea & Spices Co. isn't some new-age startup with a lot of funding. We’ve been around for a bit, working out of this old space. The rooms have these high ceilings and the walls are thick and a bit damp in the rains. We spend our time blending teas and sorting through different spices we get. The smell of Darjeeling tea is usually the first thing you notice when you walk inside our door. It’s a busy street outside with lots of offices and heritage buildings everywhere. We don't have any flashy signs or digital displays to attract people. Our work is mostly manual—tasting the tea, mixing it, and packing it into boxes. Sometimes the traffic on R. N. Mukherjee Road makes it really hard for the supply trucks to park, so we have to carry the heavy boxes quite a distance by hand. It’s tiring work, but it’s what we do. We aren't trying to be the biggest tea company in the world. We just like what we do and try to keep everything steady. There’s a lot of dust in Dalhousie from all the old buildings, so we’re always cleaning the glass jars on the shelves. It’s a very traditional way of working. We know most of the other shopkeepers around this block. It feels like a small community even in the middle of a big city.
