Organic Dragonwell*: This authentic Chinese West Lake Dragonwell is considered to be one of the world's finest green teas. The large flat leaves of Lung Ching produce a delicate and rich infusion with hints of chestnut.
Genmaicha: A traditional Japanese green tea blend that balances the wholesome vegetal flavor of steamed green tea with the nutty flavor of roasted rice.
Organic Sencha*: The emperor of green teas, hand picked, deep steamed, and carefully dried after harvesting. A delicately sweet, herbaceous aroma emanates from the dark emerald leaves.
Boulder Blues: Fruity & Fun. This blend of fine Japanese Sencha and high-grade Chinese Dragonwell combine to create a refreshing & rich base, while wild strawberries & rhubarb flavors add a subtle twist. Great hot or iced!
Organic Clouds & Mist*: Buttery & Toasty. The subtle aroma of this golden infusion is a compelling mix of smoky, citrus & vegetal. Its earthy taste, reminiscent of buttery roasted artichokes, has notes of toasted pecans.
Organic Jasmine Petals*: You’ll want to linger over these visually and aromatically enticing organic green tea leaves infused with the fragrance from jasmine flowers. A smooth, delicate liquor that steeps up amazing, both hot & iced!

Green tea, like all teas, is made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. The leaves are picked, withered, and then heated to lock in the freshness, vibrant taste, and green color. Because of this very short processing time, green tea has a higher concentration of chlorophyll, polyphenols, and antioxidants than other tea types. For this reason, green tea has earned a reputation over the past 5,000 years for its health benefits.
Polyphenols are compounds that have been linked to a host of health benefits such as bolstering immune systems and reducing the formation of certain cancers and cardiovascular diseases. Polyphenols are found primarily in plants and notably in very high concentrations in green tea. These potent compounds are best known for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that may help us live our healthiest lives possible.
Green tea is also rich in L-Theanine, an amino acid associated with improved mood and focus, as well as reducing stress and anxiety-like symptoms.
