Where do you get your tea?

What is loose leaf tea?

Loose leaf tea is a tea that is NOT brewed in a teabag. In most cases, loose leaf tea is made of higher-grade tea leaves that are whole and unbroken. When brewing, you often get a more flavorful cup with stronger aromas. 

Can I get free samples?

Yes! We know how hard it could be to find your favorite tea. Please leave comments and let us know what you want to try before placing the order.
