Tannins

Polyphenolic structures providing the foundational structural matrix required for authentic Karak.

Tannins are naturally occurring polyphenolic compounds found in premium tea leaves providing the deep robust body and structural foundation required for authentic milk tea recipes.

Weak alternative tea bases lack the necessary tannin structure causing the tea flavor to become completely drowned out when mixed with rich milk or sweet cream components.

We select premium tea extracts rich in natural tannins ensuring our dry bases maintain a bold unmistakable tea character that stands up to milk and cream.
