Please keep teas in a cool and dry place away from direct sunlight and strong odors. The black bags in which Rishi packages their tea is perfect for storage as they keep light out and can be resealed. What kind of water should be used to brew the tea? Even the best tea will only be as good as the water used to prepare it. Avoid distilled water, mineral water and tap water when making tea. Spring water or filtered water is best. Rishi recommends that you test several different filters and brands of bottled water to find the best water in your area. They highly recommend using a thermometer to accurately measure water temperature. To best enhance the flavor and fragrance of your tea, pour hot water into your teapot and cups, let sit for a few moments and then discard. Warming the teaware helps maintain the temperature needed to infuse aromatic tea and will result in a more pronounced flavor profile. What is a natural flavor? As a Certified Organic company, Rishi Tea must follow strict regulations in order to call something a “natural flavor.” According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), a flavor is defined as the following: “The term natural flavor or natural flavoring means the essential oil, oleoresin, essence or extractive, protein hydrolysate, distillate, or any product of roasting, heating or enzymolysis, which contains the flavoring constituents derived from a spice, fruit or fruit juice, vegetable or vegetable juice, edible yeast, herb, bark, bud, root, leaf or similar plant material, meat, seafood, poultry, eggs, dairy products, or fermentation products thereof, whose significant function in food is flavoring rather than nutritional. The flavors Rishi Tea uses in Certified Organic products must meet some additional requirements put forth by the National Organic Program (NOP). They must obtain documentation from our flavor suppliers that verify their flavors are non-synthetic, have not been produced using synthetic solvents and carrier systems or any artificial preservatives, that they are not derived nor is any ingredient derived from GMOs, and they have not been irradiated. This documentation is presented to their organic certifier at the time of certification of all products and is verified during their annual organic inspection.
