Giving tea as a gift-it makes sense
The enjoyment of tea is universal ,in fact tea is the most popular beverage consumed worldwide. Whether you are a tea drinker or serve tea to others having a variety of premium quality loose leaf blends is always appreciated. It is almost expected that most pantries will stock a variety of teas,with visitors and guests often asking “you don’t happen to have green tea or a chamomile or a peppermint do you?” Being able to say yes or even to offer a more unique and exotic blend can add enjoyment to all when entertaining and socializing. So whether you are giving a personalized gift to someone close or a gift just to say “thanks”choosing tea makes sense. An exquisite tea is always a valued gift to enjoy and share with others.

Rooibos vanilla and Turkish apple fruit mélange-smooth and sweet
Green tea with lemon and ginger herbal infusion for a bit more zing
Lemon, lime and bitters fruit mélange with a touch of peppermint for added freshness

Why loose leaf tea?
Taste alone is reason enough to choose premium loose leaf tea but here are a few extra reasons to consider. High quality loose leaf teas include whole unbroken and/or large pieces of leaf and/or handpicked buds. To allow the full extraction of vitamins, minerals, flavours and aromas TEA NEEDS ROOM to absorb water and expand. Limiting this process to a small teabag is limiting the full benefits and enjoyment of your tea experience. Another point to consider is that some teabags include low grade tiny broken leaves and tea dust which can release more tannins giving a harsher flavour and higher caffeine content. So please take that extra minute and brew a cuppa worth drinking!
