The winning cups of the year

Mint Mumbai

November 23, 2024

I have always enjoyed making booklists once a year, scanning award lists for old favourites as much as new authors. Nowadays the end of the year has me making a similar list for tea.

The winning cups of the year

This month, the Leafies, an international tea award organised by the UK Tea Academy in collaboration with department store Fortnum & Mason, were announced. Around 400 entries received were blind tasted by a global jury. There are four award categories: Gold, Highly Commended, Retail and Special awards. India's haul was 3 Golds and 5 Highly Commended, with Kolkata-based Jay Shree Tea topping the list for the most awards won by a single company: 5.

Maitreyi Kandoi, whose family owns Jay Shree Tea, says that while recognition like this energises the company (it operates 22 estates across India), it is also a win for Indian tea, in particular Darjeeling.

Investors expect AI use to soar. That's not happening

An uncertain outlook for interest rates. Businesses may be holding off on investment until the fog clears. In addition, history suggests that technology tends to spread in fits and starts. Consider use of the computer within American households, where the speed of adoption slowed in the late 1980s. This was a mere blip before the 1990s, when they invaded American homes.
