An authentic Japanese loose-leaf tea, it has a mellow character that makes it approachable pre-breakfast or ideal as a soothing afternoon infusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey to the distinctive appeal of this toasty, nutty brew is its underlying grassy sweetness, which comes from the premium-quality Japanese green tea leaves. Harvested from July to August on the Pacific coast of Honshu, the leaves for our Supreme Genmaicha are plucked young from the traditional Yabukita cultivar of Camellia sinensis, then gently hand-rolled and dried. Grains of roasted rice – some of which 'pop' during the roasting process – are then added to the mix, resulting in this eye-catching blend of green, gold and white textures, which brews to a beautifully clear, pale-yellow infusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA winner at the Great Taste Awards, this luxury single-origin Sencha should be enjoyed without the addition of milk or sweeteners so you can fully appreciate its mild nuttiness from the roasted brown rice and hints of fresh-cut grass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat are the health benefits of Genmaicha?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGenmaicha is thought to impart a range of health benefits, thanks to being rich in polyphenols. Derived from green tea, these plant compounds include gallic acid, associated with improved gut health, and flavonoids called catechins, which studies have shown may be linked to good cardiovascular function, weight management and even cancer prevention. Because of their minimal processing, green teas are also higher in other antioxidants such as carotenoids and ascorbic acid (vitamin C) than other teas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is Genmaicha Tea?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile genmaicha is relatively new to the Western world, where it's seen as a speciality tea with a complex flavour profile, in Japan this green tea has been consumed for centuries – mostly by the poor and by Buddhist monks during periods of fasting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGenmaicha means 'brown rice tea'; in the days when green tea was a luxury few could afford, the addition of rice bulked it out and made it affordable for the working classes.

Considered a superfood, goji berries are linked to several anti-ageing benefits, particularly skin and eye health, due to their high levels of an antioxidant called zeaxanthin. This carotenoid gives the berry its brilliant colour, and therefore its 'red diamond' nickname, and has been found to reduce the light-induced oxidative damage that leads to macular degeneration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeing a red fruit with high levels of vitamin C, antioxidants and amino acids, goji berries are also associated with immune-boosting and flu-fighting properties.

A Buddhist monk called Eisai is widely credited with introducing tea farming to Japan, bringing seeds back from a visit to China in 1191. His book, Kissa Yojoki (which can be translated as 'How to Stay Healthy by Drinking Tea'), was the first book about tea in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTea, the monks believed, was beneficial to both health and meditation. Their uptake was followed by the tea ceremonies associated with Samurai and Japanese intellectual culture – created to appreciate the arts, philosophy, education and politics while enjoying the brain-sharpening benefits of this hot 'new' caffeinated beverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy the 16th century, tea bushes were being shade-grown to boost \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chlorophyll\\\" rel='\\\"noopener'\u003echlorophyll\u003c\/a\u003e and mellow out the leaves' flavour. A method still used today in the production of matcha. But it was during Sakoku, Japan's period of self-imposed isolation from 1633 to 1853, that local tea growers really started experimenting with unique production techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1738, a tea farmer called Nagatani Soen made the first batch of recognisably modern sencha by quickly steaming the leaves to halt oxidation. He then immediately dried and rolled them, thereby locking in their garden freshness and rich green hue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMuch the same technique is still used in the production of sencha, representing about 80 per cent of the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.theteamakers.co.uk\/collections\/japanese-tea\\\" rel='\\\"noopener'\u003eJapanese tea\u003c\/a\u003e industry. Our Japanese Sencha tea is steamed, gently machine-rolled and shaped during the teas production into the customary thin, cylindrical form of tea leaf, which has a very fine and fragile structure. Finally, the leaves go through hot-air drying to reduce the moisture content, aiding preservation and capturing the tea's distinctive flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe health benefits of sencha green tea\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike other \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.theteamakers.co.uk\/collections\/green-tea\\\"\u003especiality green tea\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.theteamakers.co.uk\/collections\/green-tea\\\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003es, sencha is made from young, unoxidised leaves through a low-intervention production process that helps preserve the mother plant's nutrients and antioxidants.

This is where our Dragon Well tea is grown from the Jui Keng cultivar – harvested between March and April from tea farms owned by the Wang family, who have been producing high quality teas for three generations. Nnly one bud and two leaves are selected and plucked before being laid out to wither in the sun. The tea is then transferred to large woks, where it is pan-fried and shaped by hand – a skill that can take years to perfect and creates distinctive flatted leaves synonymous with this benchmark Chinese tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDiscover more loose leaf green tea like this\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you love this tea, see also our sustainably-grown Organic Dragon Well from West Lake, certified pesticide-free, and our antioxidant-rich Anji Bai Cha, also from Zhejiang province.

Made from the finest quality Assam leaves and chai spices, it's the perfect daytime pick-you-up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStrong and full-bodied, this authentic Indian chai blend offers a slightly malty flavour and an alluring aroma of fresh green cardamom, with delicate notes coming from the whole and ground spices. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst, there's that comforting aroma of warm spice rising from the amber-coloured infusion. Then there are the exotic, traditionally grown Indian spices on the palate – these are what make this famous black tea so wonderfully rich and exotically flavoursome. Finally, there are those strong and full-bodied orthodox Assam leaves. All of which combine to create an exceptionally calming, sweet and spicy chai loose-leaf tea, best enjoyed with milk and ideally drunk while curled up on a sofa with a good book!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is masala chai?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst of all, it is not entirely correct to say 'chai tea'. Chai is the name for tea in many parts of the world, so by saying 'chai tea', you're really saying 'tea tea'. As for its background, masala chai hails from India – or possibly Thailand, depending on your perspective. Regardless, its origins are claimed to go back thousands of years, when it is reputed to have been drunk as an Ayurvedic beverage at South Asia's royal courts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginally caffeine-free and made with a mix of spices and sweeteners for various ailments, the drink's evolution into masala chai really began with the British establishment of tea farms in India in the mid-19th century. By the 1900s, black tea leaves were being included in masala chai recipes as working-class Indians created their own version, sweetening it with milk for nutrition, adding a bolt of sugar for energy, and hawking it at street stalls across the nation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFast forward to the 1960s, and Western travellers began discovering it for themselves. And while fast-drink outlets have since adulterated the traditional drink with their abundance of overly sweet and artificial chai lattes, authentic Indian spiced black tea such as our Masala Chai remains a premium brew with a beautiful balance of intoxicating spices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeed more convincing? Well, with those spices adding their own health-giving qualities to those of the antioxidant-rich Assam leaves, our Masala Chai comes with a raft of health benefits and is available as loose leaf or in for convenience our Triune tea bags. Add to that its feel-good factor and no need to use a spice grinder when making; everyone should have a caddy in their kitchen! Enjoy a cup of chai with your choice of your milk and sugar; cow, almond milk, soy milk or oat milk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are in the mood to experiment why not add fennel seeds and star anise during the brewing process to develop the flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eExplore other spiced teas\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you enjoy your chai with milk and sugar, we recommend our \u003ca rel='\\\"noopener' href=\"https:\/\/www.theteamakers.co.uk\/products\/karak-chai-loose-leaf-tea?_pos=1\u0026amp;_sid=197ae6f25\u0026amp;_ss=r\\\"\u003eClassic Karak Chai\u003c\/a\u003e, an intensely strong black tea infused with traditional spices.

It is exactly the kind of tea that you will want to pair with a full English fry-up or as an alternative to our best selling English Breakfast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAssam teas, most of which are grown at or near sea level, are known for their body, briskness and malty flavour, as well as their strong and bright colour. This one is no exception. A TGFOP (Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe) grade tea, it has all the nuance that you would expect of a top-quality Assam: a hearty aroma of caramel, cacao and biscotti, followed by flavours of malty sweet raisins and dates with hints of stone fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike all strong black teas, Assam Thowra is high in caffeine, which can help sharpen your focus and promote a sense of wellbeing, hence we recommend it for the morning. The health benefits of black tea have been well researched in recent years and linked to everything from lowered blood pressure and improved gut health, to reduced risk of Parkinson's disease and certain forms of cancer. What's more, if you choose not to add milk or honey, Assam Thowra is a vegan tea – although we do love this one with a generous splash of milk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe terroir of Assam\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOccupying the lush green landscape of north-east India, the state of Assam is the largest tea-growing region in the world. This mostly low-lying region is dominated by the mighty Brahmaputra river and renowned for its forests, wetlands and floodplains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAssam has a climate dominated by heavy rainfall and high humidity. This part of India experiences high precipitation during the monsoon period, with as much as 250-300mm of rain per day. The daytime temperature often rises to about 40C, creating greenhouse-like conditions of extreme humidity and heat. It's this tropical climate, combined with the region's low average elevation, that contributes to Assam's unique malty taste and makes it one of the world's most popular breakfast brews. Our Assam Thowra is cultivated on an tea plantation that dates back to 1970 and sits at an elevation of 1000m above sea level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAlternatives to this single-origin Black Tea\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are a fan of a classic morning brew, you can't go past a caddy of our eye-opening \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.theteamakers.co.uk\/products\/assam-breakfast-loose-leaf-tea\\\" rel='\\\"noopener'\u003eAssam Breakfast \u003c\/a\u003etea, a bold, dark blend to kick off your day.

Ranging from cool and wet to warm and dry, these microclimates give Ceylon tea its unique character and diversity.

Once complete, they will be withered, then left to cool, tossed, fixed by heat, rolled and dried. The result of this laboured process is a collection of tightly rolled leaf pellets that are dark green and brown. Once steeped, this oxidised Oolong imparts a beautiful light-yellow hue.

Nibbled by tiny green leafhoppers, or tea jassids, its leaves begin to oxidise while the leaves are still on the plant, triggering the production of polyphenols and making for this superbly smooth and fruity luxury tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso known as Dongfang Meiren, or Bai Hao ('white tip'), Oriental Beauty is grown in the Hsinchu County area of northern Taiwan. As its Bai Hao name suggests, it's one of the very few 'tippy' oolongs – only shoots containing one bud and two top leaves are selected for plucking. Our single-origin Oriental Beauty has been traditionally harvested in summer at the perfect point of oxidation, with the tea offering a refreshing light amber infusion and complex honey flavours with hints of dark cherry and cacao.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne look at its delicate brown leaves, twisted and streaked with silver, tells you that this Taiwanese oolong is something special. Grown at an elevation of 300m in the rolling Hsinchu hills, the tea's oxidation has been meticulously controlled by the farmer, Mr Chang, which is what makes its flavour so striking. Indulgently aromatic, its sweet undertones make it easy drinking at any time of day – although with only small quantities released each year, you'll want to order a caddy quickly!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow is Oriental Beauty grown?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA large degree of Oriental Beauty's natural sweetness is down to those aforementioned foliage-eating leafhoppers. As the summer arrives, the tiny insects (scientific name Jacobiasca formosana) arrive in the Taiwanese tea gardens where Oriental Beauty is harvested. These are generally located in warmer, humid tea-growing areas and left pesticide-free to encourage the leafhoppers to proliferate. When the insects bite the leaves, the tea bushes defend themselves by releasing terpenes – plant compounds responsible for the famed honey-like qualities of the tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe trick for the artisan farmers is to let the insects graze on the plants to exactly the right point: a little leaf damage equals ideal sweetness; too much and you end up with more bitterness, rather than less.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the end, despite constant monitoring and supervision by the expert farmers, only 40-50% of the tea leaves will be usable. Hence Oriental Beauty's status as a highly sought-after and rare tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat are the health benefits of Oolong?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor centuries, the Chinese have touted the health benefits of oolong tea: as an aid to weight loss, cardiovascular function and improved cognition. And recent studies have shown that drinking a couple of cups of oolong per day may indeed help break down fat while you're sleeping due to the tea's metabolism-boosting capabilities, therefore reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes. Those capabilities are down to the tea's high levels of polyphenols, the antioxidant-packed plant-based compounds that are also linked to a decrease in cell division in certain cancers, improved bone mineral density and a reduction in certain skin conditions such as eczema.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to brew Oriental Beauty\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriental Beauty is a speciality tea that requires a slightly different approach to brewing than other oolongs. We recommend boiling the water up to 80-90C and steeping the leaves for three to four minutes. Our Oriental Beauty is suitable for two re-steepings, but we suggest keeping the wet leaves in a pot without water for the second serving, to avoid over-brewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe best teapots to use for this tea are porcelain or glass – unlike other oolongs, the use of a clay pot such as a Yixing may detract from Oriental Beauty's finely balanced flavour and integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAlternatives to Oriental Beauty tea\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're looking for an everyday option in an oolong, you can't go past our \u003ca rel='\\\"noopener' href=\"https:\/\/www.theteamakers.co.uk\/products\/four-season-oolong-loose-leaf-tea\\\" noreferrer=\"\" target='\\\"_blank\\\"'\u003eFour Seasons\u003c\/a\u003e Taiwanese tea – earthy-sweet, with a mild, nutty character, it's an easy way to get your fix.

The vast majority of oolongs are grown in the mountainous areas of China, particularly Fujian province, and in Taiwan, where oolong was introduced in the 19th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore being plucked, buds are left to open and thicken up so that they are robust enough to withstand the bruising to come – one of the unique parts of the oolong production process. Having been left to wither in sunlight, next comes the bruising: an ancient and carefully controlled technique that kicks off oxidation in the leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditionally, bruising was caused by shaking and tumbling the withered tea leaves in wicker baskets, though today machines usually do the work. As the cell walls in the leaves break down, oxidation occurs, reducing bitterness in the leaves and helping create each tea's individual character. How long each oolong is oxidised depends on the style: the greenest may be oxidised to only about 5%, while the darkest might reach 90%, on the border of being a black tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter bruising, the teas are left to further wither, oxidise and develop flavour – a practice usually carried out indoors. The length of time over which the leaves are oxidised is pivotal to the outcome of the tea, hence these steps may be repeated several times to achieve the desired result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNext up is a process known as 'fixing' or 'kill-green', during which the leaves are heat-treated, usually with hot air, to halt oxidisation. After this, the tea leaves are shaped – traditionally rolled into either long curls known as strips, or small pearl-like balls. Finally, the tea is dried and roasted to further enhance its flavour. Viewed up close, these finished teas assume fascinating forms: from long, nearly black, twisted and twig-like, to small, gnarly and lettuce-green. In fact, the only thing more varied than their form is their flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe health benefits of oolong\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor centuries, the Chinese have touted the health benefits of oolong tea: as an aid to weight loss, cardiovascular function and improved cognition. And recent studies have shown that drinking a couple of cups of oolong per day may indeed help break down fat while you're sleeping due to the tea's metabolism-boosting capabilities, therefore reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes. Those capabilities are down to the tea's high levels of polyphenols, the antioxidant-packed plant-based compounds that are also linked to a decrease in cell division in certain cancers, improved bone mineral density and a reduction in certain skin conditions such as eczema.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe legend of Tie Guan Yin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLegend has it that Tie Guan Yin tea was named after an iron statue of Guanyin – in the Buddhist tradition, the bodhisattva (enlightened being) of compassion – which was located in a rundown temple in rural Anxi. According to the story, an impoverished farmer named Wei Yin walked past the site every day. Despite being exhausted from his labours in the fields, Wei was moved by the ruinous state of the temple to spend many months cleaning and fixing it up, and lighting incense to honour Guanyin. His reward came one day when he fell asleep in the temple and Guanyin came to him in a dream, directing him to the location of a great treasure. When he awoke, he discovered the treasure – a tea shoot, hidden in a cave at the back of the temple. Having planted, harvested and produced the tea, he named it 'Tie Guan Yin'. Iron Goddess of Mercy tea was born.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAlternatives to Tie Guan Yin tea\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're looking Oolong tea, you can't go past our \u003ca rel='\\\"noopener' href=\"https:\/\/www.theteamakers.co.uk\/products\/four-season-oolong-loose-leaf-tea\\\"\u003eFour Seasons Taiwanese tea\u003c\/a\u003e.
