Hibiscus tea is known for its tart flavour and vivid magenta hue similar to pomegranate. Hibiscus is often served with sweetener to offset the tartness. It’s delicious to enjoy hot or iced. The petals themselves are eatable, too! Candied hibiscus pairs really well with black teas or as a garnish for your cocktails. Ingredients: Hibiscus flower from Egypt. Organic.

This oolong tea from Taiwan has notes of chocolate and caramel with a hint of floral finish. Like other teas from Taiwan, the flavour profile is subtle and refined. Delicious bubble tea base when served as an iced tea. A note to our long-time Charcoal Roasted Oolong drinking customer: This tea is a fresh new take on our previous version of the Charcoal Roasted Oolong tea. The toasty note is a lot lighter compared to the previous version. The tea base used in No 2 is freshly harvested Dong Ting Oolong tea with approximately 75% oxidation level; where as the tea base used in No 1 was an aged Oolong tea. We hope you will find this new version refreshing...

This Lapsang Souchong is a medium bodied smoky black tea from China. It has a smoky aroma reminiscent of a warm evening around the campfire. The taste is balanced and smooth, with the astringency that lingers on the palate, containing just enough mystery to entice you to take another sip. It has plenty of depth with notes of smoky campfire, Cedarwood and a hint of dried fig. We like to enjoy it as is. As the key ingredient for the famous Russian Caravan tea, many of our customers blend their own at-home version with our English Breakfast or Earl Grey Classic. Also goes wonderfully with cocktails and savoury dishes.  Ingredients: China black tea. 

This tea from the Darjeeling region of Northern India is grown in high altitudes and in relatively cool weather. It is perhaps India’s best known tea production region, besides Assam. Our version is the second-flush that is harvested in June when the tea leaves are more fully developed. The liquor is bright with a distinct and delicate floral aroma. The taste is full and complex with Darjeeling's signature muscatel character. A perfect choice for afternoon tea or entertaining guests. Ingredients: Darjeeling black tea (TGFOP). Organic.

This is a hand-picked purple tea from Kenya.  It is Fairtrade, non-GMO, and Rainforest Alliance certified. While not certified organic, no pesticides or chemicals were used on these leaves.  The body is light and the vegetal note is similar to a Chinese green tea, with a hint of sweet finish. Low in caffeine, the colour of the brew is somewhere between light red and light purple. This special varietal is only grown in Kenya (as far as we know of now). The leaf naturally has a hint of purple hue because of a mutation that resulted in the production of an antioxidant called anthocyanin, a compound that you will also find in other purple food such as blueberries, blackcurrants, and pomegranate. ...

It’s not a typical black tea you have in mind. A post-fermented tea that’s formed into a coin form, Hei-cha is a type of dark tea (黑茶) that is different from what is called black tea in the West. Hei-Cha has been part of Chinese tea culture for centuries. Processed through a special technique called wet piling, Hei Cha gets sweeter and more depth with age. Compared to Pu-erh, Hei-Cha has a mellower and lighter profile. Rinse first to break and wake up the tea. Steep up to 3 times. It's known to help cut the grease and pairs really well with Chinese dishes or deep-fried meals.   Even though we don’t know the exact age of this tea, we got it...
