How fresh are your teas?Updated a year ago

Well, it’s got a lot to do with freshness. And the reason why freshness matters is because tea is an agricultural product. So, fresher tea tastes better and is healthier. We buy the first pick of every season and take utmost care when it comes to storage and packaging. We work directly with tea growers who know to hand-select tea leaves for their texture, color, scent, and purity. And by sourcing the highest-quality Indian teas directly from the most capable and most interesting growers and estates, Teabox’s online tea shop makes it easy for anyone—from tea experts to complete novices—to experience the freshness, delicate aromas, flavors, and authenticity that fine loose-leaf tea has to offer. We can do this because we’re based in the same foothills and gardens where our teas are grown.

WE HAVE INDIA'S FIRST 100% TRANSPARENT PROCUREMENT TEA PROCESS

We have devised a unique tea-sourcing process. We work with the iconic tea gardens of India, and we procure teas within 24 to 48 hours of sampling and keep them under 3-4% moisture levels. Next, we hand sort and clean the whole leaves for impurities, before we vacuum pack and store them in a controlled dehumidified environment. This guarantees their freshness.

TEABOX CONNECTS TEA TO PEOPLE.

Not to distributors. Not to resellers. But to tea drinkers.
