Not all tea bags are created equal: Our contribution to Fresh Cup Magazine
This month we had the opportunity to appear in Fresh Cup Magazine, a trade publication for specialty coffee and tea professionals. The topic? Right up our alley, of course: Quality bagged tea, and why serving tea in sachets results in a delightful combination of superior tea and convenience. Read the text in full here, or view the digital version of our article on this link. Reclaiming the Convenience of Single Serve Tea By Naomi Havlen Pity the poor tea bag. Once beloved and regarded as ingenious upon its accidental invention approximately 110 years ago, the mention of tea in a convenient, ready-to-be-steeped package has become the anathema of self-proclaimed tea purists around the world. “Tea bags are gross—loose is the only way to go” is the sort of righteous proclamation you can find saturating tea blogs. What’s a well-meaning tea … Continue reading

From Sri Lanka with love
Last week we discussed what makes tea sachets so much better than tea bags. You ended up with a bunch of tea on your kitchen counter, but also a head full of knowledge about the full flavor you can get from whole leaf tea like ours. Isn’t reading a tea blog rewarding? So this time around we wanted to show you a couple of photos from one of the spots where our tea is put into those sachets. We like to pack the tea as close to the source as possible, and since a number of our teas are grown in Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon), that’s where this particular factory is. Thanks to you, our business is growing (cheers!) and so we need more machines to pack our tea. Last week this particular factory sent us photos from the inauguration … Continue reading
Time to bag the tea bags
I’m not going to name names here, but you know that bag of tea you’ve had in the pantry for a couple of months? The one you bought because Blue Raspberry Delight tea sounded fantastic as you cruised the grocery store aisles? Take it out, cut it open, and dump it on your kitchen counter. Let me tell you what you’re looking at: tea dust. At least, that’s what we call those miniscule particles of tea that came out of the bag. Now grab the nearest sachet of tea you have — you know what I mean by “sachet,” right? Like a bag, but really more of a pyramid-shaped pouch, that probably cost you a bit more. Rip it open at the seam and dump the contents on the counter (you don’t want to, but this is a learning opportunity.) … Continue reading

Tea Myth Debunked
At Two Leaves and a Bud, we like to share what we read with you. This article was written by Julie Deardoof from the Chicago tribune and is a good re-fresher on what you need to know about Tea… MYTH: Tea comes in many varieties. False! Only one plant gives us tea leavesóthe Camellia sinensis. The differences in color and flavor among the three basic typesóblack, green and oolongódepend on how the leaves are processed. For black tea, the most popular type of tea in the U.S., the tea leaves are exposed to air, or allowed to oxidize. Green teas are less processed to preserve the green color and delicate flavor. Oolong tea is between black and green. MYTH: Herbal tea is tea. False! Even more shocking is that Rooibos isn’t tea either. Technically, tea must come from the Camillia … Continue reading
