rishi tea: organic iced teas

Rishi Teas has launched a new line of 8 new organic iced teas. This line also features eco-friendly packaging. Founder Joshua Kaiser explains, " In our continuing efforts to minimize our environmental footprint, we use paper maufactured with 100% renewable wind energy and 80% post consumer waste-- that is chlorine free and 100% recyclable. The packaging is also Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and printed with soy ink. Rishi Teas are fair trade, socially responsible and very delicious! My personal favorites are the caffeine free flavors, Tropical Crimson and Blueberry Red. (Tropical Crimson has just won Best Flavored Herbal Iced Tea– (Organic/Fair Trade)!!

Competing among 41 different companies in Las Vegas for the World Tea Championships, Rishi, who submitted nearly 300 teas, took home an unprecedented 28 awards, including a stunning victory of 11 First Place winners. The World
Tea Championship, organized by the World Tea Expo, is an independent competition judged by professional cuppers and
buyers to distinguish the highest quality and best tasting teas available in North America. For the second year in a row, Rishi Tea took home more than double the awards received by their closest competitors. These consecutive accomplishments have established Rishi Tea as a leader of the industry and provided a strong validation of their
passion for quality.
