Nilkantha Tea Cabin
নীলকণ্ঠ টি কেবিন
The original home of seven-layer colorful tea, where one glass holds seven layers of different colors and flavors. A must-stop in Sreemangal.
Sat rang cha, Sreemangal's seven-layer tea, was created by Romesh Ram Gour. This old shop on Kalighat Road (Adi Nilkantha) was the first tea cabin, and several branches now operate nearby, one of them near the entrance to Lawachara National Park. Each cup is split into seven layers of different colors and flavors. There are also two- to six-layer versions, along with green tea, ginger tea, lemon tea and regular milk tea. A seven-layer cup costs about 70 to 100 taka. Reviews are mixed. Some visitors find it mainly a novelty with a very sweet bottom layer, but it remains a must-visit for tourists. The shop also sells shawls, table runners and other souvenirs. It is about a ten-minute e-rickshaw ride from the town center.
