High Grade Teas

In China, the name for tea is “cha”, and is presented with simplicity in a relaxed and meditative atmosphere. Drinking tea tempers the mind, body, and spirit, alerts thought, prevents and causes drowsiness, as well as lightens and refreshes the body. There are many types of teas such as black, oolong, green/white, flower and herb. Tea is naturally caffeinated and depending on the brand, type and how it is brewed, tea can have 10mg to 60mg of caffeine per 8oz serving. Herbal teas have none. When compared to coffee, which can have up to 180mg of caffeine per 8oz or more, tea has a significantly less amount of caffeine. Tea contains, (depending on brand, type, and how it is brewed once again), 20 essential and non-essential amino acids, 12 sugars, 6 organic acids, polyphenolic compounds (antioxidants), essential oils, fluoride, theophylline (which is used to treat asthma/breathing), and ascorbic acid (vitamin C).
