Black Orange

$9.50

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.

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.

The organic teas we import are artisanally farmed and crafted. They may change with each harvest season. The same tea harvested at a different time of year and processed by a different tea maker will vary slightly in flavour and finish.

Assam Supreme TGFOP

$6.50

Style: Black

Origin: Hathikuli Estate, Assam, India

Description: This Assam Supreme TGFOP (Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe) is a high-grade, whole leaf Assam displaying classic and delightful malty notes with a warm character. Due to the large surface area of the leaves, it steeps with slightly less astringency and boldness than a broken-leaf Assam, creating a cup that is both rich and wonderfully smooth. Steeps to an earthy red sienna. Excellent on its own, or with a touch of milk and honey.

Tasting Notes: The nose of the cup has toasted notes of dried hay and hints of brown sugar. Smooth on the palate, this tea maintains a rich malt flavour quintessential to an Assam tea without the strong linger of tannins, and pleasant traces of sweet honey at the back of the palate.

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

Persia

$6.50

Style: Black

Origin: Blended at Westholme

Ingredients: Assam, Ceylon, Darjeeling, Lavender, Oil of Bergamot

Description: Persia is one of Westholme’s very first blended teas. Drawing inspiration from West Asian tea culture, where tea is often served with morning and afternoon meals, and to guests and neighbours throughout the day, we created a flavourful and refreshing tea for any time of day.

Tasting Notes: A gentle, floral citrus scent builds in sweetness as it sits in the cup. This tea has a gentle muscatel on the tip of the tongue, with a pleasant astringency that curbs into soft notes of lavender and bergamot. The cup is pleasantly complex, crisp, and completely refreshing.

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

Sweet Morocco

$6.50

Style: Green

Origin: Blended at Westholme

Ingredients: Green Gunpowder Tea, Peppermint, Orange Peel, Raw Stevia Leaf

Description: Adding our own twist to a Moroccan tea tradition, which is traditionally served with sugar, we have instead added a touch of unrefined stevia leaf and orange peel to replicate this sweetness without compromising on flavour. The strength of the Chinese gunpowder green tea carries bold peppermint to an excellent warm steep, rounded off with the complex natural sweetness of orange peel and higher straightforward sweetness of stevia leaf on the palate. Our Sweet Morocco is a versatile best-seller – enjoy it hot or iced any season.

Tasting Notes: A fresh, playful balance between peppery warm mint and nuanced citrus sweetness. The cup is grounded with the classic strength of the gunpowder green tea, and lingers sweetly on the tongue. Refreshing and invigorating. Excellent hot or iced (via cold-steep).

Brewing Instructions: 2g per cup. 95ºC water. steep 3 minutes.

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.

Red Moon

$6.50

Style: Herbal

Origin: Blended at Westholme

Ingredients: Lemon Balm, Hibiscus, Liquorice Root, Ginger Root, Rosehips

Description: The moon has always been a paradoxical figure. While it exists in total darkness, it also has the ability to reflect light to guide our nighttime creatures. Inspired by age-old mythologies, this tisane is a perfect balance of two opposites, much like the light and dark side of the moon: tartness and sweetness. Made with a wealth of herbs and flowers containing beneficial antioxidants and enzymes, the infusion offers a gentle, natural sweetness that will soothe and restore you to the core. Steeps to a gorgeous red-pink tonic. Perfect hot or cold, any time of day (or night).

Tasting Notes: Subtle tartness from hibiscus is balanced with the gentle natural lingering sweetness of liquorice root. Rosehips, lemon balm and ginger act to ground the infusion in a delicate, refreshing zest.

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

Rooibos Earl

$6.50

Style: Herbal Blend

Ingredients: Rooibos from South Africa, Orange Peel, 100% Pure Cold-Pressed Oil of Bergamot from Calabria, Italy

Description: Rooibos is produced from the Aspalathus linearis shrub, also known as “red bush.” The plant is native to the Cederberg Mountains of South Africa. Once plucked and collected, the leaves are processed into a tisane. After harvest, the cut branches undergo an oxidation process similar to the processing involved in the creation of black tea; This technique brings out the rich, warm red colouring of the harvest, both in the branches and in the steep, and enhances the flavour into a full-bodied and naturally sweet cup. Many people now use it as a base for tea lattés; the natural sweetness of rooibos and the colouring of the steep hold up against milk almost as well as a black tea. This makes it an excellent caffeine-free alternative for those who still want a touch of milk (or milk alternative) and honey in their cup. A truly Italian organic, oil of bergamot provides the classic Earl Grey ingredient, cold-pressed from the rind of the bergamot orange, or Citrus bergamia.

Tasting Notes: This tisane is our herbal take on the classic Earl Grey tea. The steep is delicately fruity and tangy with a full-mouthed flavour and gently layered savoury sweetness. The Rooibos provides an earthy, almost woodsy foundation and a lightly sweet finish reminiscent of fresh vanilla. Bright citrus notes from both the bergamot and the orange peel uplift the steep. The crisp citrus zest compliments the Rooibos to pull a greater depth of flavour from the tisane base. A classic Earl Grey tone is certainly present, but offered from a new perspective with an infusion that is a beautiful red-amber and can be enjoyed any time of day!

*Please note this tisane is not suitable for those with allergies to citrus fruits.

Brewing Instructions: 2g per cup. 100ºC water. Steep 5+ minutes.

Green Dragon

$6.50

Style: Green

Origin: Blended at Westholme

Ingredients: Dragonwell Green Tea, Calendula Flowers, Ginger Root

Description: From the region of Hangzhou, in Zhejiang Province, we chose the famous Long Jing Dragonwell green tea for this lively blend. The flavour of this tea is a naturally sweet beginning that grows in vegetal, toasty grass notes. This sweet aroma pairs with our blend of calendula flowers and ginger root, carrying the subtle spiciness and vitality of both. Refreshing and warm, this tea is ideal during any season, and is wonderful iced using the cold steep method.

Tasting Notes: The cup begins with a natural sweetness, transforming into a refreshing palate of vegetal, toasted grasses. The subtle, aromatic hint of ginger builds in each sip, adding a wonderful nuance and gentle warmth.

Brewing Instructions: 2g per cup. 95ºC water. steep 3 minutes. Re-steep.

Rosie

$6.50

Style: Herbal

Origin: Blended at Westholme

Ingredients: Green Rooibos, Rose Petals, Rosehips

Description: Rooibos is produced from the shrub Aspalathus linearis, also known as “red bush,” which is native to the Cederberg Mountains of South Africa. Green Rooibos is processed much like a green tea; it is not oxidized and therefore retains more of its original, green colour. Green rooibos has less savoury and toasty notes than a regular rooibos infusion; The fresh, mildly sweet green version of the plant has gentle notes of fresh grass. This has been paired with dried rosehips and rose petals, adding a comforting floral bloom to the palate and a gorgeous perfume to the cup. An excellent, calming infusion.

Tasting Notes: Notes of sweet green hay ground this infusion, which weaves the floral aroma of rose petals and the gentle tang of rosehips through each sip, start to finish.

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

Honeybush

$6.50

Style: Herbal

Origin: South Africa

Description: Pure, oxidized honeybush offers a bright, red-gold infusion. Honeybush is produced from the Cyclopia intermedia plant which grows in the Western and Eastern Cape Provinces of South Africa. This tisane gets its name from the honey-sweet scent of abundant yellow flowers that are often present during harvesting time, although it is the leaves of the bush that are used to produce beverage. It is a cousin of the Rooibos plant and shares many similarities, though it is considered comparatively fruitier and a bit sweeter in taste. The steep is robust, with a complex sweetness similar to the cup’s aroma - reminiscent of dark berries and wildflowers. Unlike the camelia sinensis (tea) plant, honeybush does not bitter when steeped for long periods of time – it is frequently simmered on a stove throughout the day, lending its beautiful scent to the room as well as your teacup. Enjoy on its own or with a spot of milk.

Tasting Notes: A delicate, deep sweetness and the scent of dark berries dance on the nose and palate, with wisps of mild honey and a vanilla linger.

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

Genmaicha Yamabuki

$6.50

Style: Green

Origin: Kagoshima, Japan (Sencha) and Hokkaido, Japan (Brown rice)

Ingredients: 1st Flush Sencha leaves, Hokkaido roasted brown organic rice

Description: This classic Japanese tea is a world-renowned combination of green tea leaves with lightly toasted grains of brown rice. While adding toasted rice was initially done with Bancha teas (‘last tea,’ a lower grade of green tea) to bulk up the quantity and lower the price for poorer members of society, the distinct warm flavour of genmaicha is now enjoyed across Japan and the world. This particular genmaicha is made with the tender first flush leaves of a traditional Sencha harvest, and paired with organic toasted rice from the Hokkaido region.

Tasting Notes: The aroma of toasted sesame and an almost salty quality meets the nose. The palate starts with flavours of fresh cooked rice and toasted sesame seeds, developing a fresh green grassy brightness and a slight nutty notes. The second steeping is a bit sweeter, with less overall umami and creamy texture - the steep feels clear and more direct. A sweet mineral linger builds under the tongue. Creates a sense of fullness. Excellent paired with a savoury meal.

Brewing Instructions:

Western-style Brewing

5g per cup. 80-90ºC water. 1st Steep: 1.5 minutes, 2nd Steep: 2 minutes, 3rd Steep: 4 minutes

* a clearer, more astringent steep

Japanese-style Brewing

First Steep - 10g per 200ml. 90ºC water. Steep 30 seconds.
Second Steep - 200ml. 95ºC water. Pour immediately.

* a creamier, more umami steep
