Why Choose Organic Keemun Tea?
Going with Organic Keemun Tea supports mother nature. It sustains not only the environmental state of the land used for Tea-growing, but also the areas surrounding estates. This then helps to protect the local wildlife and maintains the health of workers.
Man-made pesticides and fertilisers, which often contain nitrogen, are slowly but surely damaging the arable land where Tea grows. And whatever is not absorbed by the plants and the soil often finds its way into waterways.
This, in turn, creates massive nitrogen-fed “algal blooms” capable of starving bodies of water of vital oxygen while also suffocating fish and other aquatic life.
98% of sprayed insecticides reach a destination other than their target, often travelling by wind and heavy rain. Ultimately, the radius of damage is not just limited to the immediate area of production. Indeed, it can spread much further.
More About Organic Teas
Organic Teas are certified by the regulatory body within the producing country and checked and certified again as they enter the European Union. The EU regulations on organic products are very robust and uniform across Europe.
Each container is checked and sampled, and if a Tea fails inspection, the container is resealed and returned to its country of origin. In other words, Organic Keemun Tea has our guarantee of being the best of the best.
