Organic Teas

With our organic tea selections, we combine our longstanding process of procuring specialty teas with an added focus on finding farms producing wonderful tasting organic varieties. In many cases, tea producers we have worked with for a number of years, have converted their farming practices to organic. This joining of traditional teamaking skills with organic farming techniques has served to bring a number of our bestselling teas to the added quality of organic. As a company and as tea drinkers, we support this trend.

Our organic teas are certified by third party certifiers in the country of origin. Additionally, Silk Road Teas has proudly been a certified USDA NOP Organic Handler and warehouse since 2012.
