Black Tea

Black tea is known for its robust and bold flavour and is a great alternative to coffee. It is a fermented tea and is high in caffeine content. If you're looking for a morning pick-me-up, black tea is an excellent choice. Black tea blends well with milk and sugar to make the perfect cup of tea, but it can also be enjoyed plain. Organic Assam Breakfast and Darjeeling First Flush teas are two popular black tea blends globally and are made in India.

 

Green Tea

Green tea originates from China and Japan and is known for its light and refreshing taste. It is an unfermented tea and is full of antioxidants and other health benefits. Drinking green tea regularly can improve brain function, reduce the risk of several chronic diseases, and boost metabolism. It's an excellent option for anyone looking for a healthier alternative to regular tea or coffee.

 

White Tea

White tea is a much milder version of green tea and is becoming increasingly popular across the world. It's an unfermented tea and is known for its floral aroma and fruity taste. White tea is full of antioxidants, has anti-aging properties, and is beneficial for skin and hair health. It's a great option for anyone looking for a delicate taste and health benefits.

 

Herbal Tea

Herbal tea is a versatile tea that is known for its numerous health benefits. It is a mix of different herbs, spices, and fruits and is caffeine-free. Herbal tea comes in various flavours and blends, and each blend has its unique benefits. Organic Chamomile Lemongrass tea, for example, is known for its soothing properties and can aid in relaxation and reducing stress. Evergreen Peppermint tea is known for its digestive properties and can help soothe an upset stomach. Genuine Tea offers a range of herbal tea blends, including loose-leaf options.
