The Origins of Herbal Teas

At The East India Company, we collaborate with premier tea providers to ensure your tea experience is exceptional. Rooted in tradition, we specialise in crafting teas that stand the test of time, infusing centuries of wisdom into every cup.

Our herbs are rooted from Sri Lanka, renowned for producing the finest traditional teas with flavours cherished worldwide. However, beyond the well-known commercial tea varieties, Sri Lanka is also a notable producer of exceptional herbal teas.

Herbal tea is not just tea, it's an infusion of various leaves such as flowers, fruits, or barks from medicinal plants. Those teas come in diverse varieties offering unique health benefits.

In many cultures people appreciate the therapeutic qualities of herbal teas. Ayurvedic practitioners often recommend that herbal teas harness multiple health benefits with their botanical advantages.

At The East India Company, we believe in the power of herbal infusions to create moments of wellbeing. Our teas are carefully crafted to not only tantalise your taste buds but also nurture your body and mind. We make your sure each cup is a step towards a lifestyle that prioritises your overall health and happiness.

EIC has a rich history in trading spices, giving us a deep knowledge of herbs and blends. This expertise is the secret behind our mastery in creating wellness teas that have stood the test of time, bringing centuries of wisdom to each comforting cup.

  • FAQ

    Does green tea include caffeine and is there more or less than black tea and coffee?
    Yes it does, and it varies. All tea leaves, just like coffee, contain caffeine. Tea usually has a lower level of caffeine than coffee, which averages around 95mg for a normal cup of coffee. But it is impossible to give a precise answer, because there are so many variables at play - the length of brew time, the amount of tea used, the age of the leaf, the provenance of the leaf. Even the temperature of the water. Our best advice is to treat all tea and coffee similarly if you need to manage your caffeine intake."

    I’ve heard that tea contains theanine. What is it and what does it do?
    Tea does indeed contain theanine, which is an amino acid [the building blocks of proteins]. Tea is one of only a few sources of theanine. It represents about 1% of dry weight and is at its highest concentrate in shade-grown teas like matcha and gyokuro. Whilst not yet proven in scientific studies that would permit specific health claims to be made, it is believed by many to be able to reduce mental and physical stress, promote relaxation and a sense of well-being. But not only that, it is more recently being thought to aid cognitive function. It’s one explanation for tea’s famous ability to create calm in a crisis [the Great British solution to all problems – ‘putting the kettle on’] and to stimulate when a little boost is required.
