Organic Green Tea:
A healthy choice. It takes 3 years before an estate gets European Association certification. Organic growing drops yields but estates are compensated by higher prices. |
IMPORTANT: Some of our organic teas are now sold in quantities of 2 oz. to make them more affordable. 2 oz. (60g) of loose tea makes approximately 15 cups; 3.5 oz. (100g) makes 25 cups. However, premium tea can be infused 2-3 times, so each 2 oz. (60g) portion actually makes 30-45 cups and each 3.5 oz. (100g) portion actually makes 50-75 cups.
