Pure Teas
Pure teas are the perfect way to reboot your system, mentally and physically, and even sensually and emotionally. With no added ingredients of any kind, each of our pure teas lets you dive deep into the complex flavors to be found in the simple tea leaf. (For the purest of the pure, learn about our organic teas.)
At first the flavors may seem subtle, without the fireworks and sparkles of our flavored blends. But after a few sips, you may start to notice layers of complexity unfolding… Is that a hint of sweet corn in the aroma? A lingering aftertaste of strawberry? Perhaps notes of dark chocolate or maple syrup…
As you clear your mind and focus on the year ahead, we hope you’ll discover new horizons opening up, unfurling just like leaves in your teacup. Here are a few of our favorite pure teas:
