From Aera
"For us, it's not only about flavor. Before buying tea, we visit each supplier and learn about their business practices. We walk the tea garden, tour the factory, taste tea, and seek to develop a long-term relationship. We believe that good tea should not be judged solely by taste, but its impact on the community.
Truly good tea:
- Tastes exceptional until the last drop
- Provides farmers and factory employees with fair and sustainable employment
- Is cultivated naturally using responsible agricultural practices that protects the environment
QUALITY & EXCELLENCE
As purveyors, we travel the world and taste a lot of tea, though only a small portion meets our stringent standards for masterful tea. Our rule: we only sell tea that we enjoy ourselves.
ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP
We source our tea from gardens that use organic cultivation practices, grown without the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers. We also look for gardens characterized by high biological diversity. Most of the world’s tea is grown in ecosystems with low biodiversity and little to no shading, requiring the use of irrigation and chemical fertilization. Cultivation in biodynamic ecosystems is not only better for the environment, but produces healthier tea plants with more robust flavor.
COMMUNITY
We only source tea from growers that we believe have a positive impact on the community. We evaluate growers based on agricultural and labor practices, environmental footprint, and community impact.
TRANSPARENCY & EDUCATION
We strive to be transparent and educate our customers, suppliers, and partners on our business practices and standards for excellence in tea, environmental stewardship, and community benefit. We hope to be a resource to tea enthusiasts who are passionate about what goes into making truly exceptional tea.
