What makes Augustea special?

It is our effort to bring to you high quality teas with all their freshness intact. A lot of work goes into finding the right tea leaves sourced from the best estates and then ensuring their freshness in packaging so that we can bring to you a cup that cheers!

Tea leaves come from the camellia sinensis plant which are categorised into four major heads – white, black, green and oolong. All the four categories only differ in terms of fermentation process and the extent to which they are oxidized.

Herbal tea is an infusion or blend of various leaves, fruits, bark, roots or flowers belonging to almost any edible, non-tea plant. It is not technically tea as it does not derive from the Camellia sinensis plant.

Infusion teas have existed for a very long time, but have surged in popularity over the past several decades thanks to their vibrant flavor, as well as their myriad mental, emotional, and physical health benefits.

In an increasingly stressful and chaotic world, infusion teas present an opportunity to go back to basics and focus on wellness through a holistic approach.

Because they can be created from almost any combination of natural ingredients, there are a vast number of herbal tea varieties and each one comes with its own flavor, qualities and health benefits.

Tea bags have started to play an important part in our daily lives. Today, millions of people around the world enjoy a variety of teas in their daily routines without the hassle of having to make a fresh brew each time. In fact, dipping a tea bag and savouring its aroma and taste is one of the few things that we all look forward to every day.

Tea is an all-time favourite beverage which can be had hot or cold based on the season and preference. Everyone can vouch for the sense of refreshment that a cup of tea brings but there is plenty of research to show that drinking tea actually has a positive impact on improving health and wellbeing.
