Be Nice to Your Green Tea

This morning, while I was enjoying my breakfast with some of our Cherry Blossom tea, I pondered the thought that some people may be unaware that they are hurting their green tea. Shock! What? Hurting green tea? How is this possible? As these thoughts and questions go racing through your head, trust me, you can hurt your green tea. Green tea likes water temperatures that are cooler than those for black teas. Essentially, boiling water will ruin your green tea and you do not want to do that.

Personally, I believe this is one of three reasons that people if they have had green tea, say that they do not care for it. They will say it is bitter. So be sure your water temperature is correct for the tea you are using. The second reason is that people steep their tea way too long. The third personal theory is that people may be using inferior tea. We use gourmet teas and the flavors are phenomenal.

To make sure people can have the best cup of tea possible, we at Tozy Tea have made the water temperature and steeping times as easy as possible for the customer. All of the water temperatures and steeping times are highlighted on the front of each and every canister of tea.

So take a little extra time and be sure you have the perfect water for your great gourmet tea.

Please note that the label above is not for any of our green teas. It only shows where to find this information on our labels.
