Over the years, I have become enamored with tea. I've come to the point that now, not only do I enjoy tea for it's taste and soothing comfort, I have also come to appreciate the many health benefits. I have also become more aware of our environment and how I can help reduce the harm being done to it. Which brings me to my newly purchased green looseleaf tea... I prefer looseleaf to eliminate tea bags in the trash. I also prefer looseleaf because it can float freely in the water when steeping. I want organic tea nowadays for my protection as well as the earth's. Green tea has so many benefits, that's my choice now for hydration instead of plain old water. (I brew the green tea and then drink it iced.) But that means I'm drinking a lot of it and need decaffeinated. The fact that Tea & Trumpets is a small business, just adds to the delight of purchasing this tea! I could taste the authenticity and quality from the first sip. Glad I found this company...I'm going to try some other varieties of their tea!
