Mahalakshmi’s Story of Hope "Since I began working as an Artisan, the income I earn has allowed me to send my children to school and provide them with opportunities I never had. It has also given me a sense of pride and independence, knowing that I can support my family with my work. I want people to know that every cup of tea has a story behind it: one of dedication, care, and the collective effort of many Artisans like myself. Supporting us means supporting entire communities and helping us build better futures for our families.”

For a green tea it's ok not a big green tea person needs to be sweetened
I drink so much tea that I’m pretty sure my blood is green at this point. This tea smells really earthy in the bag, and has some surprising floral notes once it’s brewed. It’s smooth and incredibly delicious!
