"The Subtle Foods We Eat Become Our Minds"
- The Upanishads
Tea shouldn't be industrially forged, and it shouldn't be riddle down with heavily processed components - so we create it by hand and made to order.
Tea shouldn't be picked by non-fair-trade laborers, and the end goal of the company providing the tea shouldn't be monetary - so we dump mass profits back into learning more about the properties of tea, and making certain laborers receive a living wage.
Tea, and its many components that create such a variety of teas shouldn't be hidden from the consumers mind - so we have setup this education center to teach all of you about just what makes tea so special.
We mentioned the quote from the Upanishads that you have read above, and that one simple quote is something we live by. The subtle energy of the ingredients that we use to craft our tea becomes a part of you. We aren't in the business of poisoning our consumers, but rather in making sure that they are given the wholly organic tea experience as if they picked it from the plant themselves.
The Little Urban
Tea Family
We love tea! I mean we really REALLY love tea. When I say "we" I mean the entire family loves tea.
We came to realize how much money we were spending on tea and beyond that what ingredients the teas were comprised of. We learned at that moment not all teas are made the same and we had to be diligent about what we chose to purchase. Eventually, after much consideration we just decided to launch our own little urban tea company and thus it was born.
Since we prefer not to have "Artificial Flavors" or the other less than savory agents in our foods we made the pledge to never add that into anyone else. We want you to enjoy the tea in its most natural and organic state. Whole ingredients, made by hand, and made to order.
Come try some, tell us what you think, and return to get some more!
Love,
April & Stephen Founders of The Little Urban Tea Co.
