Three specialty tea blends added to Artisan Collection of sustainably produced teas
Farmer Bros. Co. – a national coffee roaster, wholesaler and distributor of coffee, tea and culinary products – announced today the release of three new Artisan Collection Specialty Hot Teas.
The new blends will expand the flavor offerings of this sustainably produced specialty tea line. Like the original seven specialty blends, the new flavors are certified organic and use large leaf tea, herbs and flowers in pyramid-style sachets, which allow the full fragrance and flavor to develop during the steeping process.
“The Artisan Collection Hot Teas are very popular with our customers,” said Gerard Bastiaanse, SVP of Marketing. “Because they are sustainably produced and feature organic full-leaf blends, they have a universal appeal to consumers who are looking for a sustainable specialty tea. Several of our blends are certified organic, so they are free of any synthetic pesticides or chemicals, and our farming methods help conserve the environment.”
The three new Artisan Collection Hot Tea blends include:
- Organic Earl Grey Black Tea
- Organic Mint Mosaic Herbal Tea
- Organic Pan Fired Green Tea
