We are hearing about the benefits of drinking tea more and more.  And, apart from water, tea is the most popular beverage in the world.  Here’s a few reasons why you might want to bring tea into your daily life…

1.   Rich in Antioxidants: necessary to help remove toxic molecules which enter our body through pollution, artificial substance intake, and metabolic waste.  Removing these toxins inhibits the development of disease and strengthens immune system functioning.

2.   Boosts Metabolism

3.   Promotes Hydration/Balances Electrolytes

4.   Anti-Mutagenic Properties (anti-cancer)

5.   Aids Digestion

6.   Reduces Risk of Heart Disease (Polyphenols)

7.   Natural Flouride (strengthens tooth enamel)

8.   Stress Relieving (Theanine creates feelings of relaxation while keeping you alert/cuts Cortisol, a       hormone that rises while under stress)

9.   Lowers LDL cholesterol (Pu-erh and Black teas)

10.  Calorie and Fat Free

11.  Quality tea just tastes good!

Beyond these amazing health benefits, the world of tea offers a great variety of tastes and aromas, with a rich history filled with tales and traditions.  Although all tea comes from the same plant, nearly infinite variations in growing conditions, pickings, and processing result in over 2,000 varieties in China alone.

We are proud to make available some of the finest teas produced in China.  Freshness and quality is of the utmost importance. You will taste the difference in your cup!
