We are proud to say that each of our blended teas have been developed by us here at Tea Trekker. Every tea blend in the ‘<em>Tea Trekker Blends</em>’ section is blended by us, by hand, in small batches, in our store, from the same premium teas that comprise our varietal tea selection.
Our house blends are very popular – they are delicious and we blend them acccording to traditional and historic tea formulas. We do not use cheap filler teas in our blends, because we know that a great blend can only be realized from premium component teas!
As when selecting a wine, many tea drinkers enjoy the individuality of a single-growth varietal tea. Others prefer the constancy of a blended flavor profile. This is why we offer both types of tea. In addition to the personal satisfaction that we find in the challenge of creating and maintaining a blend, we enjoy both the unique flavor profiles of our varietals and the reliability of our blends. Our tea blends are fantastic and represent our learned skill at this craft.
We use our experience to bring the elements of flavor and style of unique teas together to create new synergies of taste – teas that will be balanced, complex, and more well-rounded than most single-growth, un-blended teas tend to be.
We also do not hesitate to mix types of tea or particle size in our blends. You will notice that we are quite creative with our conceptualizations and that our blends effect our goal for them: to be an interesting, readily-drinkable, and thoroughly enjoyable pot of tea...(because most blends steep best by the potful).
