Sweet orient ORGANIC
Sweet orient ORGANIC — black tea by Alveus. Organic raw material. Price per 100 g.
Classic black tea: the leaf is fully oxidised, hence the coppery-dark infusion and confident strength.
A single-origin tea: no flavourings, no additives — just the leaf.
The raw material is certified organic: grown without synthetic pesticides or mineral fertilisers, with a documented supply chain from plantation to warehouse.
Black tea contains a noticeable amount of caffeine — it is a morning and daytime drink.
Preparation: 12–15 g per litre, 3–5 minutes, water at 100 °C. Fully oxidised leaf needs boiling water: only then does the body of the infusion develop. Steeping beyond five minutes adds an astringent dryness.
The quantities given are averages. Soft water calls for slightly more tea, hard water slightly less.
Suitable both for the retail shelf and for a venue’s tea list: a recognisable profile, a predictable result in the cup, consistent quality from batch to batch.
Storage: in a tightly sealed opaque container, away from light, moisture and strong odours. Tea readily absorbs foreign aromas, so it should not be kept next to spices or coffee.
Packaging: sold loose, the price is given per 100 g. Alveus supplier code — 84090.
The supplier is Alveus (Germany), one of Europe’s largest tea houses. Packing and dispatch from the Verdamare warehouse.
