The 8th India International Tea Convention was held this year under the banner “Innovating the Tea Ecosystem for Tomorrow” at the Grand Hyatt Kochi Bolgatty, Kerala. This gathering marked the long-awaited return of IITC after a several-year hiatus under the aegis of UPASI, the United Planters Association of Southern India. The Convention aimed to recharge India’s tea discourse: to reconnect producers, drive innovation, re-examine sustainability, and reassert India’s role in the global specialty tea ecosystem. I spoke at the event and recorded my observations later in this podcast.
