Loose Leaf Tea For A Better Day
Oregon Tea Traders recognizes that most of the loose leaf tea available today comes from a handful of countries across the world. They may not always be labeled with the origins, but China, India, and Kenya produce most of the available tea in the US today. Despite this, tea is an adaptable crop that is suited for a wide range of climates and grows in most countries across the world. We want to support small farms in unique growing regions (such as the USA!) and open the eyes of tea drinkers to a much larger world of tea. That is why we offer products from 8 different countries with more on the way!Â
Oregon Tea Traders is certified Organic by Oregon Tilth. Most of our loose leaf tea is organic, and those varietals that are not are mostly produced by small farms. We try to support local farms as much as we can by sourcing herbs from them instead of importing them from around the world whenever possible. We are also working on growing tea here in Oregon because really, we believe in supporting our economy and our neighbors.
What Is So Special About Loose Leaf Tea?
If you have whole-leaf specialty loose leaf tea, especially one that was processed in small batches (either with mechanical help or fully by hand like ours!), the tea is more likely to have been processed with care to retain its full flavor potential, producing a more nuanced and layered cup.Â
