Our Ancient Tree Tea line is hand harvested from ancient tea trees that range from several hundred or several thousand years old. These ancient tea trees grow in a naturally organic and oftentimes wild environment. The most ancient tea tree is from Yunnan Province, China, the birthplace of tea. The Dai, Hani, Lahu and Bulang tribal people of Yunnan exclusively handpick our ancient tree teas. By purchasing these teas you support the local people as we deal directly with the farmers to create a fair trade tea line. True ancient tree teas can be brewed many times more than a standard tea, thus saving money. Ancient tree tea is like wine in that each brew changes to a deeper and more complex taste.
Come discover, with Shana Zhang and her team, how wild and ancient tea trees contain far more nutrients than standard farmed tea, and learn about the unique, energetic qualities found only in those tea trees in the wild. Find out how you can prevent further destruction of the environment by drinking BiodiversiTEA. If you are a tea lover, traveler, environmentalist or anyone who likes a cup good quality tea, our stories will forever change your understanding and appreciation of tea.
