Storytelling Tea

Every blend in our own tea range carries the name of a story. Names like Wuthering Heights Glow, Still I Rise and The Alchemist refer to books from our own collection.

You can choose from six types of tea: green, white, black, oolong, rooibos and herbal infusions. Everything is loose-leaf tea, in a 60 gram pouch. Order your blend online, or come and pick it out in our shop at Van Oldenbarneveltstraat 142A in Rotterdam.

Choose the tea that suits your reading moment.

• A morning with a study book: Witch's Brew, green Sencha with jasmine
• An evening of romantasy: Dark Romance, black tea with cherry, chocolate and strawberry
• The last pages before bed: The Moon Garden, herbal infusion with lavender
• A winter evening with a classic: The Storyteller, black tea with cinnamon, cardamom and orange
• Something fresh in between: The Golden Apple, herbal infusion with apple, ginger and mint

Not sure? Then drop by the shop and discover them first.

Each pouch holds 60 grams of luxury loose-leaf tea, good for about 20 cups at 3 grams per cup. So if you drink one cup a day, you can enjoy your favourite blend for almost three weeks.

Our tea pouches are airtight and lightproof, so the flavour and quality of your tea are well preserved. Close the pouch carefully after use and enjoy a lovely cup of tea time after time. Thanks to their unique design, the pouches also make a beautiful addition to your bookshelf.

Allow 3 grams per cup of around 220 millilitres, or 13 grams per litre. A heaped teaspoon comes close to that.

Brew green and white tea with water at 70 degrees Celsius, 2 to 3 minutes. Black tea and oolong need boiling water at 100 degrees and 3 to 5 minutes. Rooibos and herbal infusions steep the longest: 100 degrees and 5 to 8 minutes.

The exact brewing instructions are on the product page for each blend, down to the gram.

Two things to know before you choose.

Caffeine. Green, white, black and oolong tea naturally contain caffeine. The rooibos and the herbal infusions don't. Looking for a cup for the evening, take a look at The Moon Garden or The Alchemist.

Herbs. Some blends contain herbs with a strong effect, such as the valerian root in The Moon Garden. Are you pregnant or taking medication? Then check with your doctor or pharmacist. The ingredients are on the product page for each blend.

Every Storytelling Tea blend has its own story and a beautifully designed pouch. That makes our luxury loose-leaf tea an original gift for book lovers and tea lovers.
