Herbal Teas
Herbal teas have been used as natural remedies in traditional herbal medicine for centuries. As a water-based brew, a number of water-soluble nutrients seep into the tea and can be easily absorbed by the body once consumed. Each herb has a different effect profile that may unite hundreds of compounds. For our herbal teas we only select the best qualities from top terroirs that implement organic standards or use wild-grown herbs. Our producers are often small-holder farmers operating family-owned businesses with years of experience and passion for natural herbs and plants.
Laboratory Tests
We go to great lengths to identify the finest organic tea farms across the world’s most celebrated terroirs. All our teas are sourced directly from the farmer and, with a few exceptions, are certified organic or come from pesticide-free farms. Each batch of tea for every harvest is tested for pesticides and other pollutants in an independent German lab to ensure they meet our strict quality standards as well as HACCP food safety requirements. Likewise, all the regions of Japan from which we source our teas are tested for radioactivity for every harvest.
