Our Story
Ladakh · Himalayas · New Delhi
Found in the wild.
Made for your afternoon.
The story of a Himalayan berry, five thousand years of green tea, and one bottle born in the gap between them.
I didn't set out to start a
beverage company.
I set out to find something worth drinking. A few years ago, I came across a small, fiercely orange berry growing along a roadside in Ladakh. Our driver pulled over and told me what it was — seabuckthorn.
He said the locals had been eating it for centuries. It helped with altitude sickness, with energy, with cold winters. It tasted of something you couldn't quite name — sour and sweet and alive all at once.
I tasted one off the branch. It was extraordinary.

What the world
didn't know
When I came back to Delhi and tried to find seabuckthorn in a bottle — in any form I could actually drink on a Tuesday afternoon — I found almost nothing. A few health supplements. Some oil capsules. Nothing you'd reach for the way you reach for something cold and good when you need a moment of clarity in the middle of a chaotic day.
That gap between what this fruit actually is and how the world knew it — that's where Berrythorn was born.
I paired it with green tea — not because it was trendy, but because it was honest. Green tea has been drunk for five thousand years for a reason. It is calm. It is clean. It carries the kind of quiet energy that doesn't crash. And when you bring it together with the brightness of seabuckthorn, something clicks.
Every word earns its place
Seabuckthorn is a plant full of thorns — it does not give itself up easily. You have to go looking for it, in high altitudes, in harsh conditions. But when you find it, the reward is extraordinary.
I've always believed the best things in life have a little resistance in them — and that the people who push through it deserve something worth the effort. That is who we made this for.

Berrythorn is not a wellness brand in the usual sense. We are not selling you a ritual or a routine or a transformation.
We are selling you a bottle of something genuinely good — for your body and your afternoon and your commute and your moment of quiet between everything else.
Not for the person who reads every label obsessively. Not for the person who drinks green juice out of obligation. For the person who just wants something cold, something real, something that has a story and a reason behind it — and tastes like it means it.
We are a small brand from Delhi, made from a Himalayan berry that most of the world has never heard of. We think that's about to change. And we're grateful you're here at the beginning of it.
Taste it cold. Taste it honestly. Tell us what you think.
