Stylish and functional, this modern ceramic teapot has a pleasing satin-finish and a stainless-steel handle. Abundant super-fine holes in the stainless-steel infuser basket assure a thorough steep without particulates.
This Insta-Chai is an exotic blend of tea, spices, sugar, and milk. Blended to taste like a chai you would find served by the road-side tea stalls found in EVERY city/town/village in India. Just add a cup of hot water to 2 tablespoons of mix and stir.
The newest spring growth is reserved for first-pick Darjeeling. The gorgeous full leaves from Okayti Estate are a perfect example of first-flush: a deep flavor of muscatel with floral high notes and a crisp mineral finish.
Also known as Dragon well is produced by hand through a 10-part process. The side of West Lake in Zhejiang Province grows the tea used to produce Dragon well. Lung Ching is distinguished by its beautiful shape, emerald color, scented smell and tending sweet floral character.
Izu Matcha is a fabulous example of a high quality Japanese Matcha grown in the Izu peninsula, not far from Tokyo. The tea has a pale emerald green color and when consumed on its own, frothed up with a whisk, has an almost jammy-smoothness belied by a somewhat sweetly astringent cup. The best thing to do with your matcha is experiment.
Blood Orange Rooibos is our most popular herbal blend. It has many levels of flavor ranging from the citrus orange with a light vanilla undertone, to the malty rich rooibos base.
This is the only rooibos blend that does NOT go well with cream.
This tea has an incredible raspberry aroma with a sweet green tea (slightly grassy). Because Sencha has a smooth, almost honey-like taste it pairs perfectly with the fruity sweetness of the raspberries.
A bold-leaf Yunnan varietal with smooth cocoa notes and hints of plum and spice. The dry leaves are tightly rolled into a spiral snail shape, dark in color, with golden tip accents. Named for the twisted shape of the finished leaves - fancifully reminiscent of snail shells. The brew is moderately hearty in a longer infusion or can be reinfused about three times with briefer steeps.
