Specialty tea is the highest quality tea in the world and refers to tea that scores an 80 or above on a 100 point scale. Specialty teas are grown in special and ideal climates, and are distinctive because of their full cup taste and little to no defects. The unique flavors and tastes are a result of the special characteristics and composition of the soil in which they are produced.
The difference between each tea is the degree to which the leaves are oxidized or fermented. Usually, tea leaves that are heavily oxidized are darker or redder, and teas that are less fermented are lighter or greener. Traditional tea usually contains caffeine.
Herbal teas and fruit teas are different from traditional teas. These varieties are less likely to contain caffeine. As you might imagine from their name, they are produced from dried herbs or fruit. Different herbs may provide a variety of health benefits, but the jury is out on which benefits you are likely to gain when you drink herbal tea.
Most of our teas,spices, and herbs are organic; for specific details please refer to the item descriptions in our online store for individual properties.
We offer iced teas at several community partners in 16-oz bottles.We will be shipping these iced teas directly to consumers in 2021.
For a tea to be certified organic by the USDA, strict regulations and certifications are enforced at all levels of production. As the farms we partner with don’t always possess the financial resources to gain these certifications, we don’t require our teas to be USDA Organic or Fair Trade Certified. However, most of the farms we work with practice organic and ecologically conscious growing methods. Through direct trade, we are able to offer producers substantially higher prices for their tea.
