How to choose Tea & Cascara?

What is Cascara and how is it prepared?

Cascara is a drink made from dried coffee husks that has a mild, fruity taste with a hint of sweetness. It is prepared in a similar way to tea - pour two teaspoons of Cascara into hot water (about 90°C) and leave to infuse for 5-7 minutes.

What is the best tea for relaxation?

For relaxation and calming, we recommend herbal tea or Rooibos. Herbal teas, such as chamomile or mint, have natural calming properties, while Rooibos is caffeine-free, has a mild taste and is full of antioxidants.

Which tea is best for a pick-me-up?

If you're looking for a tea to perk you up, try Yerba Mate or black tea. Yerba Mate is known for its caffeine content and stimulating effects, while black teas provide a strong and sustained energy boost.

What is the difference between green and white tea?

Green tea is more oxidized than white tea, giving it a stronger flavor and more caffeine. White tea is milder and has a lighter, sweeter taste, making it ideal for those looking for a smooth and refreshing drink.

What is the best tea to drink during the day?

Green tea is a great choice for drinking throughout the day due to its balanced caffeine content and high antioxidant content. Try our Japan Sencha Special, which is smooth, refreshing and perfect for sipping during the day.

What tea is suitable for the evening?

For a decaffeinated evening sip, we recommend Rooibos, fruit or hemp tea. Rooibos is decaffeinated and has a rich earthy flavour, hemp tea offers a subtle herbal taste and relaxing effects, and fruit teas are pleasantly sweet and refreshing, perfect for an evening of relaxation.
