FAQ
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.
While most of our teas do not contain gluten, they are not produced in dedicated gluten-free facilities and are not certified gluten-free. Please check the ingredient and allergen lists carefully, and consult your healthcare provider if you have any concerns.
Most of our teas contain little to no sugar, carbohydrates, or calories. When they do, it’s due to 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, making them a healthier alternative. For more detailed information, check the “Ingredients” section for each tea.
Absolutely, you can find all our caffeine-free options on the “Caffeine-Free” page.
Although we offer fantastic unflavored teas, we sometimes create blends that contain flavorings. In fact, that’s why some of our favorite blends taste so great! Keep in mind that the actual amount of flavoring in a brewed cup of tea is almost negligible — around 0.001%. But if flavorings aren’t for you, we still have plenty of options. We have over 40 unflavored blends like this one… and the number keeps growing!
Natural flavors come from sources like essential oils, essences, or extracts. Artificial flavors are factory-made, without using plants or fruits. They may taste similar but lack depth and nuance. We want to confidently enjoy our own tea and showcase nature’s beauty, so you’ll only find teas with natural ingredients here.
Did you know tea doesn’t really expire but loses its freshness over time? To keep your tea fresh, always store it in a cool, dry, dark place, and ensure it’s well-sealed. To enjoy the best cup of tea, we recommend these guidelines:
• Teas and infusions with fruit and nuts: consume within 6 months of purchase.
• Pure teas: consume within 12 months of purchase.
It’s best to always consult your healthcare provider. All our teas have detailed ingredient lists, so you’ll have the information you need to ask your provider if specific blends or ingredients are suitable for you.
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.
Iced tea should be consumed within 3 days.
You’re in luck! All our teas are specifically designed to be safe for brewing in cold water.
