OUR TEAS
China Black Teas
Black tea is prepared by evaporating the moisture from the leaves. The leaves are then rolled, sieved, fermented (or oxidized) and dried (or fired). It is this firing that turns the leaves black.
Decaffeinated Teas
Decaffeinated teas are ideal for those who want a relaxing drink without the kick of caffeine. The addition of flavorings to decaffeinated teas provide those who want to limit their caffeine intake with interesting alternatives.
Estate Teas
Teas grown in India and Sri Lanka can be identified by the estate or farm on which they are grown. Most estates are owned by individuals or private companies. Many are justly famous for the high quality teas they produce.
Oolong Teas
Oolong tea is prepared in a manner similar to that of black tea however, it is only partially oxidized. The partial oxidation and the particular variety of leaf used give oolong tea its special flavor.
Green Teas
Green tea is steamed immediately after picking. This softens the leaves for rolling and keeps the juices from oxidizing. The leaves are then rolled and dried. Since they did not go through the oxidation stage these leaves remain green after firing.
Herb & Fruit Teas
After a long, stressful day, an herbal tea is sure to delight. Because most contain little or no caffeine, herbals or tisanes are also ideal for those who wish to limit their caffeine intake or want to unwind with a less stimulating cup in the evening.
Flavored Teas
Flavored teas are very popular and are very affordable in today's market. They have long been enjoyed for their varieties in flavor, aroma and complexity. Many tea lovers have a shelf of fine teas to suit every occasion and mood, just like wine lovers keep a rack of their favorite wines on hand.

We carefully blend small quantities of special teas to ensure quality and freshness. Some of these teas are flavored, while others are unflavored blends. In all cases utmost care is taken to ensure that the resulting products will meet or exceed expectations.
White Teas
The rarest of all teas, hand-plucked white tea takes on a subtle yet complex flavor from elegant leaves and silver buds. White teas undergo the least processing of any of type of tea; young leaves are dried to remove all moisture but preserve the delicate young leaves. Lighter in body than greens, a white tea yields a refined infusion that is naturally sweet.
