What is "designer" tea?

We're all familiar with designer clothing, bags, and sunglasses. These items are designed for a picky consumer who wants something special. Amazing items created by someone with an eye for style, who knows that every step takes care and creativity to provide the customer with a product they will love . The materials used, the way they're balanced and the care with which they are put together is what takes shoes, clothes and even tea from basic to fabulous.

According to wikipedia:

Designer is a broad term for a person who designs any of a variety of things. That usually implies the task of creating or of being creative in a particular area of expertise... Designers are usually responsible for making a model that takes into consideration each step in a product's development, including not only how a product will be used but also how it will be made.

We craft our teas with this kind of care and attention. When we create custom blends, we take into consideration what you, the customer wants in their cup. Sweet and light, deep and earthy, smoky or malty are all considered, weighed and balanced to create something that is the perfect fit for your palate. Just as a custom clothing designer would take into consideration your bodies curves and what you desire an item to do for you, we consider your personal palate and what you want your cup of tea to taste like. We work with carefully selected ingredients to create a tea that gives you exactly what you're looking for.

Based on your desires, palate and budget, we can create a tea around a taste, event or mood. We make special custom blends for favors, gifts and businesses.

Want to offer your party or wedding guests something extra special? We can design a tea that will compliment your dinner or desert, work with your theme or time of year and it can be custom labeled for your event in several different sized tins.

Want to send out a special, unique gift to your family or clients? We can custom blend something that you'll be proud to have your name associated with and will leave the recipient thinking of you with a smile on their face with every sip.

Tea can be a wonderful, special experience that you can share or keep all to yourself (like the designer of those fantastic new red shoes you bought). Every sip should leave you smiling like when you slip on that perfect pair of jeans.

Imagine your perfect cup of tea, the happy smile a great cup of tea brings with the first sip: imagine what happiness tastes like.

Happiness can be found in a cup of carefully crafted designer tea.
