We selected two completely different types of tea and are offering them to you during October to celebrate Fair Trade Month. The first is Green Dew – a China green, recently certified fair trade. It is a wonderful everyday green – light in the cup with a sweet mouth feel that lingers. A very good accompaniment to food.
The second is its polar opposite – a dark black, Assam BOP or Broken Orange Pekoe. This is India’s everyday tea. Millions consider this their daily cup around the world where black tea is enjoyed – India, England, Ireland being the largest consumers. It steeps quickly, has a dark, rich color and is the traditional tea taken with milk.
Both are certified Organic as well. Enjoy them and know that each time your purchase a product that carries the Fair Trade logo, a portion of your purchase price goes back directly to the workers of that estate who then spend it on projects of their choosing to benefit their community.
