Why Caffeine is put in to a wonderful Camelia Sinesis Plant????

“If you are cold, tea will warm you;
if you are too heated, it will cool you;
if you are depressed, it will cheer you;
if you are excited, it will calm you.”


William E. Gladstone quotes (British Statesman and Prime Minister (1868-1894)

Caffeine and Tea

What Is Caffeine????



Caffeine was first discovered in tea in 1827, and was named theine. It was later found in mate and various other plants. Eventually it was shown that the theine of tea was identical with the caffeine of coffee, and the term theine was then dropped.


Does Tea Contain More Caffeine Than Coffee?????

While coffee and tea are both sources of caffeine, the amounts of caffeine in any single serving of these beverages varies significantly. An average serving of coffee contains the most caffeine, yet the same serving size of tea provides only 1/2 to 1/3 as much.One of the more confusing aspects of caffeine content is the fact that coffee contains less caffeine than tea when measured in its dry form. The caffeine content of a prepared cup of coffee is significantly higher than the caffeine content of a prepared cup of tea


Tea Black (8oz) 40mg

Tea Green (8oz) 20mg
Tea White(8oz) 10mg

Coca Cola (12 oz can) 34 mg

Pepsi (12 oz can) 38 mg

Barq's Root Beer (12 oz can) 22 mg

Chocolate milk (8 oz) 4 mg

Dark chocolate (1 oz) 20 mg

Milk chocolate (1 oz) 6 mg


What is Decaffeinated Tea??

Decaf tea is any tea that has undergone a process which eliminates most of the caffeine content. Two processes are currently used to commercially decaffeinate tea, an ethyl acetate and a CO2 method. While the ethyl acetate method is cheaper and easier, the CO2 method has been proven much safer. Decaf tea is the perfect alternative for tea lovers who are trying to lower their caffeine intake.

Benefits of Tea

Numerous studies have demonstrated the anti-cancer properties of antioxidant polyphenols. Some studies have suggested that tea's polyphenols may reduce the risk of gastric, esophageal and skin cancers, if one consumes 4 to 6 cups daily. Another study showed that just 2 cups of tea may lower the risk of ovarian cancer by 46 percent in women. Other studies have found that polyphenols help prevent blood clotting and lower cholesterol levels. One Japanese study found that Green Tea lowers death rates from heart Disease.

Blooming Teas or Flowering Teas

Blooming Teas

A finest collection of hand-sewn green and white tea with fresh flowers.
These beautiful display teas are a delight for both your eyes and taste buds. They are mini floral bouquets that bloom when water is poured over them. The blooms have been created by skilled artists in China who hand tie jasmine scented green tea leaves around fresh flower blossoms. The results are small tea balls with a unique sweet scent and flavour. One bloom may take 1 minute up to 10 minutes for sewing depending on the shapes and flowering types. While still moist the leaves are shaped into balls, mushrooms, cones etc and finally the teas go through the usual drying, oxidation and firing process.

Method of Preparation

Place one bloom in a teapot (a clear glass teapot is recommended so you may watch it unfurl). Bring water to a low boil and pour over tea. The tea leaves will unfurl and the tea flower will slowly open. Allow to steep 2-3 minutes, or to desired strength.
After enjoying the first pot, a Flowering Tea may be re-steeped 2-3 more times. The tea you make should be decanted into teacups within a short period of time so that leaves do not remain in hot water, which would adversely affect the fine taste of this tea. Please note that above estimations are based upon a teapot which holds 18-20 ounces.
Alternatively, you can also place blooms in wide mouthed wine glasses and pour 5 – 7 ounces of low boiling water.

1. Good Luck Bloom
Delicate and delicious spring green tea hand-wrapped around beautiful jasmine buds brews a lovely bouquet of tropical flavours and rich fragrance.

2. Flower of Wealth

Miracles of Tea


"Tea is the second most common beverage in the world".......second only to water!
All the teas come from the "Camellia Sinensis"plant (Black, Green, Oolong,White) however, there are many "teas" that are infusions of different plants and herbs that have other properties.
There are many various health benefits of tea that vary by the type of tea.

Types of Tea
1. Black Tea-Black tea is the most common type of tea in our culture. It is tasty with milk and sugar, with honey, or by itself. Black tea is a variety of tea that is more oxidized than the Oolong, green, and white varieties. Black tea is generally stronger in flavor and contains more caffeine than the less oxidized teas.

2.Green Tea-Green tea is a type of tea made solely with the leaves of the tea plant that has undergone minimal oxidation during processing. There are many health benefits of green tea.

3.Traditional Oolong Tea-Oolong is a traditional Chinese tea some where between green and black in oxidation. It ranges from 10% to 70% oxidation. Oolong has a taste more akin to green tea than to black tea: it lacks the rosy, sweet aroma of black tea but it likewise does not have the stridently grassy notes that typify green tea.

4. White Tea-White Tea is the uncured and unoxidized tea leaf.White tea is very different in flavor from other teas. The flavor of white tea is far more delicate than other teas. It also has a sweeter flavor than other teas, and is paler in color. In addition, white tea has very little aroma.



5. Rooibos Tea-Rooibos teas are herbal infusions often called "Red tea", made from a South African red bush. Red tea is usually sweet and delicious either hot or iced. These naturally caffeine-free teas are extremely high in antioxidants and typically Vitamin C as well, as they often contain fruit pieces.

What is an antioxidant? An antioxidant is a compound, which retards oxidation. In the body antioxidants can 'soak up' free radicals.

6. Masala Chai Tea or Bombay Chai-We often use the term chai to refer to the spiced tea that is common in India, Srilanka, called masala chai. Masala chai can be made in many variations, but is often black tea mixed with spices such as cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, anise, peppercorn, and ginger etc…
