What is Unique About Your Business?: All our teas are selected by James Henderson Robe, former Personal Chef to the Dutch Ambassador. James has worked all over the world as a personal chef and has always incorporated tea into his cooking. He has worked to prepare exclusive cuisine and selected loose leaf teas for: celebrities; captains of industry; and senior political figures.

Additionally, all of our teas are sold and sealed in 25g bags for freshness – not the standard 50g bag that is so often used.

What Are Your Best-Selling Teas?: Silver Needle White Tea (China), Dong Ding Oolong (Taiwan), and our exclusive Ambassador’s Choice Oolong (China).

Do You Carry Organic Teas?: Yes, several that are USDA Certified.  Others we stock are organic, however as they are not certified we do not list them as such.

Do You Carry Fair-Trade Teas?: None that are certified ‘Fair Trade’, however we work closely with suppliers and farmers to ensure that at every stage people are treated with respect and paid fairly. Quality loose leaf tea requires skilled pickers and tea masters who are always in demand and paid accordingly.

Where Are Your Teas Grown?: China and Taiwan.

Why Do Your Loyal Customers Keep Coming Back?: Our teas taste great. We always seek out the best tasting examples of the teas we stock. We also always respond to customers’ questions and feedback personally. We offer super fast delivery, too, and our tea boxes are created to be fun to open!

Where Can Your Teas be Purchased?: Online via driftwoodtea.com.
