Our Ingredients
Zanskar Valley
This cold desert region located at 13,000ft in the northern flank of the Great Himalayas is known for its clean water bodies, tall snow-capped mountains, scenic landscapes, and the mighty flowing Zanskar river. It is home to unique flora and fauna, including the Himalayan Snow Leopard, most of which are not seen anywhere else in the world.
Garhwal and Kumaon Ranges
These mountain ranges, located in North India, are a part of the Himalayas. They are nurtured by the nascent Ganges river as it descends from the higher reaches. Many herbs and aromatic medicinal plants grow on these mountains and their surrounding regions.
SATPURA RANGES AND VINDHYA RANGES
These hill ranges running through central India are nurtured by the Narmada and Tapti rivers. The ranges are covered with thick forests that provide habitat to several animal species, including the Bengal tiger, Barasingha, Gaur, Dhole, Sloth Bear, Chousingha, and Blackbuck. These forests are also abundant with many ayurvedic herbs and medicinal plants
Malabar and
Coromandel Coasts
These coasts, lined along the western and eastern ghats of the Indian subcontinent, are located on rich soils and fed by abundant rain. The constant sea breeze ensures that the aromatic plants and spices grown in these regions have the most decadent flavours.
TEA GARDENS OF INDIA
The tea gardens of India offer a captivating blend of natural beauty and centuries-old traditions that have made them renowned worldwide. Nestled amidst the picturesque landscapes of Darjeeling and Assam in Northeast India, as well as the Nilgiri Hills in the southern part of the country, these regions have become synonymous with the production of some of the world's best teas.
Growing up near Kanha National Park, surrounded by nature's vastness and beauty, I developed a deep bond with the wilderness from an early age. Nature's serenity, its boundless energy, and the wildlife with whom we share this planet have always inspired me. I believe that nature offers us an abundance of treasures—herbs, flowers, fruits, teas, and more—all with incredible potential to nourish and heal. Blooms and Leopard is my heartfelt endeavour to share these treasures with you. Every blend we create is a celebration of nature—crafted not just to be savoured, but to inspire you, to help you reconnect with the natural world, and to bring out your best self. It’s my hope that through our offerings, you’ll feel the joy, calm, and vitality that nature has always given us. Thank you for being a part of this journey.
Warm Wishes,
