Focus: Green Tea


GREEN TEA
Rich in powerful antioxidants & health benefits, Green Tea has a fresh, sweet flavor and fragrant aroma.
~~~~~~~~~~
Due to minimal processing, Green Tea retains its natural appearance and vibrant color as well as high levels of the plant’s healthy properties. Green Tea varies dramatically in flavor from grassy and sweet to floral and fresh to nutty and roasted. Like fine wine, Green Tea’s flavor depends on the plant varietal, season of harvest, soil, elevation, weather, cultivation and origin. Each region has its own distinct flavor and aroma.

Green Tea is one of the fastest-growing segments of the US specialty tea market due to continued media coverage highlighting its powerful health benefits. According to scientific research, Green Tea is rich in EGCG (one of nature’s most potent antioxidants) which may help protect the body against disease and aging. Green Tea is also noted for its ability to aid weight-loss, improve immune system functioning and simultaneously relax and rejuvenate the body.
