Asheville's local chai brewers since 2014
Inspired by the flavorful and complex spices of traditional Indian chai, Tommy and Joel began testing and tasting their own twist on a recipe learnt from an old friend Tommy met years ago during his travels. Gram by gram, batch by batch, They discovered the recipe which is now Asheville's favorite local chai; AppalaChai!



From its establishment in 2014, AppalaChai continues to work towards expanding in an organic, sustainable, and socially responsible way.
