Care & First Use

Before using your teapot for the first time, we recommend preparing it as follows:

  1. Fill the teapot with boiling water.

  2. Let it sit for one minute, then pour out the water.

  3. While the teapot is still warm, gently wipe the exterior with a dry cloth.

  4. Repeat this process three to four times.

  5. Allow the teapot to air-dry completely, inside and out, for approximately 30 minutes.

Ongoing Care

To maintain the quality and appearance of your teapot, follow these care guidelines:

  1. After each use, rinse the teapot with hot water only—do not use detergents.

  2. Dry the exterior while the teapot is still warm.

  3. Never use abrasive sponges; clean only with a soft cloth.

  4. Always let the inside of the teapot dry with the lid removed.

  5. To prevent stains or rings, do not leave water or tea in the teapot for extended periods.

  6. Before storing, ensure the teapot is completely dry inside and out. If possible, store the lid separately.

Tip
Protect and pre-heat your tea pot with warm water, rinse and dispose the water after 15 seconds. Refill the pot with hot water and add the strainer with the tea leaves. Clean the pot by rinsing with just hot water, use a clean dishcloth to dry.

FAQ

How long will my tea stay fresh, and how should I store it?

Did you know that tea doesn’t actually expire but loses its freshness over time? To keep your tea fresh, always store it in a cool, dry, and dark place, and ensure it’s well-sealed. To enjoy the best cup of tea, we recommend following these guidelines:

Teas and infusions with fruit and nuts: consume within 6 months of the purchase date.

Pure teas: consume within 12 months of the purchase date.
What is the difference between natural and artificial flavors?

Natural flavors come from natural sources, such as essential oils, essences, or extracts. Artificial flavors are produced in a factory and do not involve any plants or fruits. They might taste similar but lack depth and nuance. We want to confidently drink our own tea and showcase the beauty of nature, which is why you’ll only find teas with natural ingredients in our selection.
Does your tea contain flavorings?

Although we offer fantastic unflavored teas, we sometimes create a blend that contains flavorings. In fact, that’s the reason some of our favorite blends taste so delicious! Keep in mind that, no matter how strong the flavor is, the actual amount of flavoring in a brewed cup of tea is almost negligible — about 0.001%. But if flavorings aren’t your thing, you still have plenty of options. We have more than 40 unflavored blends like this one… and that number is always growing!
How do I make the perfect cup of tea?

You’re in the right place! Depending on the type of tea and ingredients, we recommend different steeping times and temperatures to ensure the flavors are just right. You can find our recommended steeping instructions on each tea’s product page.
Do your teas contain sugar or calories?

Most of our teas contain little to no sugar, carbohydrates, or calories. When they do, it’s from natural sugars (like in teas with pineapple) and always less than 5% of the sugar found in most fruit juices or other ready-to-drink beverages on the market, making them a healthier alternative. For more detailed information, check the “Ingredients” section for each tea.
Are your teas gluten-free? Vegan?

While most of our teas do not contain gluten, they are not made in dedicated gluten-free facilities and are not certified gluten-free. Please carefully check the ingredient and allergen lists, and consult your healthcare provider if you are unsure.

And yes, we have a huge selection of vegan teas! Shop our vegan tea selection here.
Where can I find a list of ingredients and more information about allergies?

Each tea’s product page includes a list of ingredients and mentions any major allergens. Please read everything carefully. If you have an allergy, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider before consuming any of our teas.

The right teapot

At CiTea we believe that drinking the perfect cup of tea goes beyond just using fresh ingredients in our tea. To prepare the perfect cup of tea, a good teapot is essential. Ultimately, it makes the difference between a 'good' cup of tea and a 'perfect' cup of tea. When choosing a teapot, it is important that you pay attention to a number of things. It is useful to see what materials the teapot is made of and whether the tea stays warm. Teapots are made from different materials. At CiTea we only use high-quality materials. At CiTea we have cast iron, glass and porcelain teapots. Of course, you not only want a functional teapot, but also a teapot that looks nice. The teapots can be found in different colors, including black, green, pink, red and white. The cast iron teapots are made in Japanese style, with each motif having its own meaning. The porcelain teapots are sturdy and suitable for every household. At CiTea they are simple, elegant and available in white.

Maybe a glass teapot is something for you. A glass teapot does not release any color or taste. This teapot is easy to keep clean. Unfortunately, a glass teapot loses its heat faster. At CiTea there are beautiful glass teapots of good quality. You can even buy a glass teapot with a filter.

Tea bags and tea filters

If you like to drink loose tea, it is useful to use tea filters. At CiTea we sell high-quality paper tea filters with which you can make your own tea bags with loose tea. The tea filters are made of natural material and the box is made of recycled cardboard. You can also choose one of our stainless steel tea filters. Most stainless steel filters in our range can be easily cleaned by putting them in the dishwasher.

Tea tins

If you store tea properly, the tea will last longer. In a tea tin you store tea correctly to maintain the best taste sensation. At CiTea we sell various tea tins that ensure that your tea stays fresh longer. The tea tins are airtight and cool. This makes CiTea tea tins ideal for storing your tea for longer and maintaining its quality.
