What are your thoughts on transparency in the tea industry?
- I hope that we continue to offer more transparency in the tea industry, from where our teas come from to how purchasing tea continues to improve lives around the world. I hope that transparency will continue to push for better working conditions for tea workers everywhere.
What role does tea play in our lives?
- To everyone, tea can play a multitude of roles. It can relax us, it can invigorate us. It can be our escape from reality or bring fond memories of realities past. It can be a part of a new healthful regime or that guilty pleasure with cream, sugar, and maybe a nibble of a cookie.

TeaTiff Picks: Black Currant. Once upon a time, back in college I went to New Zealand and fell in love with Black Currant teas. Upon my return I did my best to find one that was suitable to what I tasted there and this was the one I settled on. If you have yet to try a black currant tea do yourself a favor and start with a good one.
