The Cafe – Boho Cfe in Dubai stuns chai enthusiasts with a luxurious 24-carat gold tea.
A Dubai café has taken the concept of teadrinking to unimaginable levels of luxury.

Reactions from Tea Enthusiasts
The extravagant pricing has drawn mixed reactions online. One user humorously commented, “Bhai, chai peene ke liye bhi EMI deni padegi” (Brother, will we have to take EMIs just to drink tea?). While some applaud the café’s creativity, others question whether the golden addition truly justifies the price.
Another user added, “Now why in the world would I want to eat gold in my coffee and croissant.”
One of the users quipped, “Do I have to declare to customs before going on a flight after having this?
For many, chai represents comfort and affordability, a stark contrast to this high-priced version. While the Gold Karak serves as a symbol of indulgence, it also highlights the extremes of culinary experimentation.
In India, chai is more than a beverage, it’s a cultural phenomenon, connecting people from diverse backgrounds. The thought of spending such an exorbitant amount on tea challenges this humble tradition, sparking curiosity about the fine line between luxury and excess.
Whether a marketing gimmick or a genuine treat for luxury seekers, Boho Cfe’s Gold Karak tea stands as a testament to the evolving nature of culinary arts. Would you pay Rs 1 lakh for a cup of chai?
