Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Assam and Darjeeling tea?
Assam black tea comes from the Brahmaputra Valley in Northeast India. Assam produces full-bodied, malty, brisk tea with higher tannins — ideal for breakfast blends and strong tea drinkers. Darjeeling (First Flush and Second Flush) comes from the foothills of the Himalayas and offers a delicate, floral, muscatel-forward profile with lower tannins — perfect for premium specialty tea retail. Nilgiri, grown in the Nilgiri Hills of South India, offers a gentle, spicy character with brisk finish. For UK white-label buyers: Assam dominates volume (breakfast teas), while Darjeeling and Nilgiri command premium shelf prices. Radiance supplies all three at estate origin pricing.
Post-Brexit UK labeling requirements?
Post-Brexit, UK tea must comply with UK Food Information Regulations: English-language labelling, metric weight (e.g., '250g'), country of origin clearly stated (India), allergen declarations if applicable, best-before or use-by date, and organic logo (UK Organic leaf or EU Organic leaf — both valid in Great Britain). We supply in loose bulk for you to repack and label, or provide pre-printed branded bags with your design. MOQ for custom-printed packaging: 500 kg per SKU. Full compliance documentation provided with every shipment.
MOQ & UK delivery timeline?
Minimum Order Quantity: 500 kg per tea type (Assam, Darjeeling, Nilgiri, Green, Herbal). Full container mixing allowed — e.g., 500 kg Assam + 500 kg Darjeeling First Flush + 500 kg Oolong = 750 kg in one container. Free DHL/FedEx air samples: 100g packs dispatched within 48 hours of inquiry, arrive UK in 3-5 days. Production timeline: 7-10 working days after label approval. Sea freight: 18-22 days CIF Felixstowe or Southampton from Cochin/Kolkata ports. Total inquiry to delivery: 35-45 days first order.
UK Organic certification process?
Radiance Overseas holds NPOP (India Organic) certification, which the UK Organic Regulation recognises as equivalent post-Brexit. No re-certification required for NPOP-certified tea imported to UK. Every shipment includes: UK Organic Transaction Certificate (OTC), NABL Certificate of Analysis (pesticide residues, heavy metals), phytosanitary certificate, and Certificate of Origin. The UK FSA (Food Standards Authority) oversees organic claims. Your tea arrives market-ready with full UK compliance documentation. No customs delays related to organic status.
Can you custom blend teas?
Yes. We offer full custom blending at MOQ 500 kg per custom blend. Examples: Assam + rose petals for your 'Royal Breakfast' blend, Darjeeling + bergamot oil for your 'Earl Grey Heritage' premium line, Oolong + jasmine pearls for specialty retail. Blending is conducted in GMP-certified facilities with NABL testing for final blended product. COA provided per blend. Delivery 10-14 days after blend approval. Pricing: blending surcharge applies. Perfect for differentiated white-label offerings on the UK premium tea market.
