Deccan Chai

The Deccan plateau is a mineral-rich area that contributes to India's mineral wealth.
During the 17th century, drinking tea became fashionable among the English, who started to plant tea on a large scale in India. Tea culture is defined by the way tea is made and consumed, by the way the people interact with tea, and by the aesthetics surrounding tea drinking. Different regions favour different varieties of tea—white, yellow, green, black, or post-fermented (dark)—and use different flavourings, such as herbs, milk, or sugar. The temperature and strength of the tea likewise vary widely.
