Gru Tea’s dedication to provide the finest teas can be found in the highest-quality ingredients it sources through its sister company Yogi Botanicals and the wisdom it applies when combining herbs and spices at processing and blending sites in Germany and India, while also acting socially responsible by protecting the earth’s natural resources. All Gru teas contain naturally organic ingredients in variable proportion. Our worldwide team of growers, processors, packers, blenders and tasters are committed to deliver the product and service for our clients.
We are thankful to all who have contributed in this journey from growers to processors and to fellow tea drinkers for their aspiring contribution and upliftment of our experience as their choice.
Gru Tea uses 100 percent recycled and recyclable paper in its packaging, as well as vegetable-based inks and dyes. Tea bags are 100 percent oxygen bleached and use pure cotton strings and staples made of inert metal.
CTC and orthodox teas are sourced from our partner tea estates in Darjeeling and Assam. Teas are sold in bulk form packed in paper sacks, jute bags or tea chests. We have a taste for tea. And nothing tastes better than teas that are sustainably farmed and socially beneficial.
All tea comes from the "Camellia sinensis," an evergreen shrub that may grow up to 60 feet in the wild. When cultivated for harvest, the tea bushes are kept to a height of about three feet. There are over 3000 varieties of tea, each with its own specific characteristics. Tea is harvested after each flush - the sprouting of the top two leaves and the bud. The top two leaves and the bud are hand plucked and then processed into any of the four types of tea: Black, Green, Oolong, and White. Black tea is withered, fully oxidized and dried. Black tea yields a hearty, amber-colored brew. Some of the popular black teas include English Breakfast and Darjeeling.
Green tea skips the oxidizing step. It is simply withered and then dried. It has a more delicate taste and is pale green / golden in color. Oolong tea is popular in China. It is withered, partially oxidized, and dried. Oolong is a cross between black and green tea in color and taste.
