Frequently Asked Questions about our blends

Please reach us at questions@namasteblends.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Where is our product from?

We are very proud to say that we have partnered up with one of the best tea suppliers in the world. About 95% of our dry tea and herbs come from our primary vendor located in Toronto, Canada, with over 30 of experience. The rest of our herbs come from different vendors located in the USA that carry the finest and fresh ingredients. Our teas are sourced primarily from China, India, Sri Lanka, Africa, and Thailand.

How fresh are our blends/teas/leaves?

Tea is a highly specialized agricultural product, and to preserve optimal quality, our vendors only buy peak seasonal tea and vac-pack them for enduring freshness. Therefore, the most crucial step to ensure sustained quality is to purchase tea only when it is at its seasonal peak, and most global tea regions have only a 3-7 week window when quality peaks. Therefore, our teas are always fresh!

What is the shelf life of our teas?

Approximately 2 years when kept in their bag and used regularly.

How should I store my tea?

Keep tea in your bag to protect it from light, humidity, and high temperatures. Also, make sure to keep it in a dry, cool place away from the stove, and do not store it in the refrigerator or freezer. Also, please keep it away from items with strong smells. Oxygen, moisture, and intense aromas are all hazardous to the delicate subtleness of tea.

Is loose-leaf tea higher quality than grocery store tea bags?

Yes, it is a better quality tea for several reasons. In the tea industry, tea leaf grading is the process of evaluating products based on the quality and condition of the tea leaves. The highest grades are often referred to as "orange pekoe." On the other hand, the lowest quality is referred to as "fannings" or "dust." So, when they are crushed to make bagged teas, the tea is referred to as "broken." As a result, the tea dust does not have the same mouthwatering flavor or full benefits.

What is the difference between Ayurvedic teas and other wellness teas?

Ayurveda is believed to be the oldest science of medicine, practiced for more than 6,000 years. Ayurveda translates as “science of life” in Sanskrit. Most of the time, Ayurvedic teas are blended to complement and balance the three Doshas. Moreover, Ayurvedic teas are traditional herbal teas served with specific herbs to help balance, detoxify or nourish your mind or body. Therefore, the right kind of Ayurvedic tea can help balance the doshas in your body to bring back harmony and well-being.

Can our Ayurvedic tea blends cure diseases?

NO. Our Ayurvedic teas do not treat or cure diseases. However, drinking Ayurvedic teas made up of certain herb combinations may help restore some Dosha imbalances. According to Ayurveda, if the Doshas are imbalanced, we can help them bring them back to their balanced state through an Ayurvedic routine, lifestyle, diet, and herbs before irreversible changes occur. In addition, according to Ayurveda, the intelligence of the herbs will help restore where the body has lost its connection to consciousness.

Who can drink our teas?

Please consult your primary physician before making any changes to your diet. Our Ayurvedic teas are made up of different herbs that may be compatible or incompatible with any medications you may be taking. Our herbs + fruit blends are kid-friendly, which can make great juice substitutes or can be turned into homemade popsicles! Yummy!

Are our products organic?

Most of our products are organic. In addition, some of our Ayurvedic blends contain organic herbs. You may refer to the Tea Menu for information on a specific tea for more information.

Are our products GMO?

Are our products caffeine free?

The caffeine content is on each tea label. No surprises :)

Ayurvedic & Organic Tea Brewing Information

IDEAL BREWING TEMPERATURE: 100ºC/212ºF

HOT BREWING METHOD: Bring filtered or freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place one slightly heaping teaspoon of loose tea for each 7-9oz / 200-260ml of fluid volume in the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep for 5-10 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time, the stronger the tea).

ICED TEA BREWING METHOD (Individual Serving): Place one slightly heaping teaspoon of loose tea or one tea bag into a teapot for each serving required. Using filtered or freshly drawn cold water, boil and pour 6-7oz/170-200ml per serving over the tea. Cover and let steep for 7 minutes. Add hot tea to a 12oz/375ml acrylic glass filled with ice, straining the tea or removing the bags. Not all of the tea will fit, allowing for approximately an additional ½ serving. Add milk and sweeten to taste. A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to increase the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted.

ETHICAL TEA PARTNERSHIP

RESPONSIBLE TEA PRODUCTION

Organizations to improve the lives of communities within the tea sector.

The Ethical Tea Partnership (ETP) is a not-for-profit organization that convenes tea companies, development agencies, and governmental and non-governmental organizations to improve the lives of communities within the tea sector.

We are very proud to say that our primary vendor works in partnership to tackle the deep-rooted issues that are holding back the sustainability of the tea sector.

What issues are we talking about?

Improving the incomes and well-being of farmers and workers
Improving living conditions and nutrition
Improving the lives and opportunities for women and young people in tea communities
Reducing gender-based violence Improving climate change resilience.

To find out more about the ETP and its role at the center of tea sustainability, please go to:

www.ethicalteapartnership.org

Our primary vendor is a member of the Ethical Tea Partnership!

Ethical tea tastes better.

Are you currently buying teas certified by the Ethical Tea Partnership?

You should.

RESPONSIBLE TEA PRODUCTION

The Luxury Tea Difference

1. Luxury quality teas are hand-plucked. This means reducing reliance on fossil fuels and pollution with virtually no CO2 output. (Japan is an exception. There, luxury teas are harvested by machine.)

2. Tea plantations absorb CO2.

The better run the estate is, the more carbon is absorbed. In addition, most of the estates our primary vendor deals with use renewable timber and old rootstock for fuel, further reducing emissions.

3. Luxury estates rehabilitate the soil. Fields are rotated and left fallow on a regular schedule.

4. Better botany means less reliance on pesticides. Many of the luxury teas we carry are pesticide-free. As a matter of fact, many luxury tea areas (i.e., Darjeeling, Kenyan Highlands, or Sri Lanka) can support tea 100% free of pesticides, thanks to the high altitudes. (Tea pests can't survive.)

When these policies are followed, luxury estates thrive, providing jobs, housing, education, and medical care for workers and their families.
