Empowering Plantation Communities
India produces over a fifth of the world’s tea every year, and two million people in the country work in the industry. Assam is a key tea growing region with tea communities making up nearly 20% of the state’s population.
Our work is designed to create a positive impact in two areas: the empowerment of women and farmers in the tea industry and the environmental sustainability of tea.
We work to improve incomes and empower women to be more independent, as well as help the sector to become more resilient to the impact of climate change.
We source our tea responsibly from tea gardens on fair terms. From the purchase of any product of the Shokeen Brewing Co., one percent goes to the Shokeen Charitable Trust. The Shokeen Charitable Trust provides food for the poor, supports women and widows by helping them seek employment, and prevents the exploitation of tea pluckers at the plantations.
We guarantee that producers are being paid a fair and stable price for their products, allowing them to develop their business and work their way out of poverty.
To ensure that you get the most premium and quality blends, we hand-pick the finest tea leaves by proudly sourcing them from the best tea gardens in the world. Taste the luxury in every sip with the Shokeen Brewing Co.
