Origin
The tea plant Camellia sinensis is grown on plantations usually on a mountainside, preferably and best in a warm and humid climate. Think of countries like India, China, Japan and Kenya. The taste of tea is determined by the location of the plantation, climate, seasons and soil conditions. The higher the garden, the better the quality of the tea.
How do I store loose tea?
Loose tea is best stored airtight and dark. Preferably in a cool dry place. As a result, the tea stays tasty much longer. A tin that closes tightly is a good choice for storing your loose tea.
How do I make black tea?
A nice cup of black tea is made with well boiled water that has a temperature of about 90 degrees. Put you tea in a tea strainer and then let it steep for 2-4 minutes. Use 1 scoop per cup, which is about 2 grams.
