e are continually creating and trying new blends, most of which you will probably never try. Before we release a new blend it must satisfy all of our requirements including great taste, uniqueness from all the other teas out there, and we must feel comfortable with the source and the people we work with all the way from the grower to our retailers. Once everything falls into (or out of) place, we conduct laboratory tests for heavy metals, pathogens, and other chemicals and potential contamination to ensure the purest and healthiest possible botanicals.
