Black Orange

$9.00

Style: Black

Origin: Blended at Westholme

Ingredients: Black Pekoe Teas from India, Sri Lanka, China, Oil of Bergamot, Orange Peel, Pure Vanilla Bean

Description: A true Earl Grey tea consists of a fine black tea scented with the unique fragrance of pure oil of bergamot. We’ve made a wonderful and extravagant expansion on this classic tea by adding pure vanilla bean, orange peel, and Ceylon tea to enhance the natural sweet citrus notes that Earl Grey is known for. Using beautiful large tea leaves, the flavours in this blend unfold gently into a smooth, warm and comforting black tea. This cup is excellent and naturally sweet on its own, but also handles milk and honey nicely.

Tasting Notes: The beautiful, bright amber cup smells of sweet vanilla malt and fresh zested citrus peel. Begins with soft vanilla and the crisp refreshing fruity notes of Ceylon tea on the tongue. This builds to orange peel and a warm malted cinnamon flavour, astringency building in the mid-tongue and rounding off into a sweet linger.

Brewing Instructions: 2g per cup. 100ºC water. steep 3-5 minutes.

*Please note that our Earl Grey Blends contain pure Oil of Bergamot. They are therefore not suitable for those with allergies to citrus fruits.*

China has a rich and ancient tradition of producing high quality teas of all varieties, and black tea is no exception. This is where tea culture and industry, as we know it, began nearly 2,000 years ago.

Known as ‘Red Tea’ in China, the tea leaves from the Camellia sinensis sinensis plant are smaller and finer than their Indian counterparts, the Camellia sinensis assamica, and prefer cooler mountainous regions. Usually plucked by hand and gently processed, the end result are exquisitely fragrant teas with lesser levels of astringency and a soft body.

Several Chinese provinces are famous for their regional tea selections: Fujian Province is home to the well-known, pine-smoked Lapsang Souchong, while Keemun tea, the official choice of the British Queen, is produced in Anhui Province. Yunnan province produces the ever-popular varieties of Yunnan black tea and is also the region where China started its tea cultivation.

Black Cardamom

$9.00

Style: Black

Origin: Blended at Westholme

Ingredients: Assam, Cardamom, Vanilla Bean

Description: Throughout Western and Central Asia, cardamom is used to add a perfumed complexity and sweetness in standard black teas. We chose a bold and malty Assam black tea, combining it with green cardamom pods, lightly cracked to release their astonishing flavour. As a luxurious addition, we also added pure vanilla beans for a subtle natural sweetness. Vanilla and cardamom come together to add just enough creamy taste to the classic malt of the Assam tea. A perfect morning cup, enjoyed on its own or with milk and honey.

Tasting Notes: Naturally sweet and complex on the nose, the pure vanilla bean in this blend adds a lovely, subtle cream to the texture of this tea's aroma and palate. The unique perfume of the cardamom, reminiscent of deep citrus, enhances the strong steep and malt of the Assam tea with freshness on the palate. The linger is luxurious and sweet.

Brewing Instructions: 2g per cup. 100ºC water. steep 3-5 minutes.

Cowichan Caravan

$6.00

Style: Black

Origin: Blended at Westholme

Ingredients: Assam, Ceylon, Keemun, Hojicha, Lapsang Souchong, Lavender

Description: This black and green tea blend was inspired by age-old tales of traveling tea merchants. Navigating their horse-drawn caravans from China through the cold climate of Russia, and finally into Europe, we created our own version of the famous Russian Caravan tea - the smell of the pine-smoked Lapsang Souchong in this blend reminiscent of cold nights camping on the road. The teas in this blend come from China, Japan, India and Sri Lanka - taste experiences and traditions from four of the biggest tea producers in the world. The result is a complex and aromatic cup, with a subtle lavender perfume woven through the pine steam of a fresh-poured cup.

Tasting Notes: The fine balance of tea from many regions and many traditional processes are woven together for this blend. The cup is at once robust in its savoury pine strength, while also gently sweet and understated. Complex crispness and notes of citrus linger on the palate after a pine-smoked welcome. A gentle lavender linger and slight malt finishes the smooth cup.

Brewing Instructions: 2g per cup. 100ºC water. steep 3-5 minutes.

Calm Lav

$6.00

Style: Herbal

Origin: Blended at Westholme

Ingredients: Chamomile, Lavender

Description: When we first moved to our property in the Cowichan Valley, our dream was to grow lavender. Inspired by rolling hills of purple shrubs, we started populating the south facing slope of our garden with lavender plants. A few years later, however, we switched our focus to the Camellia sinensis plant, and our flowers were replaced with bushes of tea. Many of our original tea blends contain lavender – an ode to our history on the farm. They have become much loved and remain on our shelves.Chamomile and lavender produce a gentle floral blend that smells as wonderful as it tastes. Both plants are known for their soothing properties, which help calm the nervous system and ease digestion.

Tasting Notes: The earthy cream of chamomile flowers pairs with the refreshing elegance of lavender for a cup that smells and tastes divine. The cup is flavourful and gentle – full of a wonderful floral complexity. A perfect tisane to sip and calm the senses.

Brewing Instructions: 2 - 3g per cup. 100ºC water. steep 5+ minutes.

Jasmine Golden Dragon

$6.00

Style: Green

Origin: Fujian Province, China

Description: Fujian Province is home to China’s finest jasmine teas.

Jasmine Golden Dragon combines a delicate, smooth green tea with the perfect amount of jasmine for a well-balanced cup. This tea is soft in its steep, yet flavourful, resulting in an elegant cup with an attractive lingering bouquet and a gentle astringency.

Tea cultivation and processing originated in China about 5,000 years ago, and while they carry on a rich and ancient tradition of producing high-quality teas of all styles, their green varieties are truly beyond comparison. The flavour profiles, aromas, and processing techniques from each tea-growing region vary tremendously. Some become silky and smooth, while some become powerful and astringent. Whether for casual daily drinking, or for special moments of ceremony and contemplation, Chinese green teas truly nurture the soul.
