Natural Flavorings

Many companies use "natural flavorings" in their teas. According to the government tea companies (and food companies) are not required to release the ingredients on "natural flavorings" or "spices" when they are proprietary or under a certain percentage in the food/beverage to be consumed. The idea is to protect the company.

However, that can be a danger to the consumer. Natural flavorings and spices can be allergens. Sometimes people are allergic to things that most people aren't allergic to, so it's (in our view at least) important that people know what they are consuming.

Here at Felicitea, we've got a list of allergies that can make sharing a pot tea an interesting, if complicated, proposition at times: coconut, mango, pineapple, lavender, rose and a number of people who are gluten sensitive.

We're sensitive to the fact that people have allergies. And having tasted more then one cup of tea with trepidation because of uncertain ingredients, Felicitea will always list all of our ingredients.

If you pick up a tin of Felicitea tea's you'll know exactly what's in it. Because every cup should be a happy, and safe, cup.
