Sıkça Sorulan Sorular
How should I store my tea?
To maintain the quality of your tea, we recommend storing in a cool and dry place, in a tight container away from sunlight. We also recommend keeping your tea away from highly aromatic products such as coffee or spices, tea is very good at absorbing other aromas.
Why Do Some Tins Look Fuller Than Others?
Our tins are standard 50gr, this is to facilitate the packaging and price point for our consumers. However, as each tea has different ingredients and appearance, some teas such as white tea that have big leaves will look full but a Jasmine Pearl tea that has tightly wrapped leaves won't look as full. Our overall recommendation is to use 2-3 grams per teacup, each packaging has either 25 grams, 50 grams or 75 grams.

What are our teabags made out of?
We have two types of tea bags, our pyramid tea bags are made of a plant starch (PLA) and are 100% biodegradable and plastic free. Our artisan muslin teabags are made with biodegradable muslin cotton. Both our tea bags allow the tea space to grow and release their full flavor potential. In order to make our bags biodegradable, we do not use glues, staples or metals, our tea bags have a cotton string and printed-paper tag only.

We use Yurtici or Aras Kargo, we typically give the order to the shipping company 1-2 days after the order is received. It typically takes 3-4 business days for you to receive your order.
Does tea go bad?
We always include the best by date; however, tea generally does not spoil or go bad; it simply loses it's freshness over time.
What Are Natural Flavors and Why Are They Used in Some Blends?
Natural flavors are concentrated liquid extracts made from natural ingredients. We use these flavors to complement dried fruits in some blends to create a complex flavor that cannot be achieved by infusing dried fruits. These natural flavors are extracted with oil, alcohol or water.
