Percasso Coffee & Bottled Water Service, Inc. is proud to introduce a new line of teas by local tea master, Steven Smith.
Smith Teamaker is a new entrant into the specialty tea category, and is quickly defining itself as a leader in the “Super Premium” segment of the tea category. Smith Teamaker, the latest tea effort by the co-founder of Stash Tea and Tazo Tea Steven Smith, imports teas and herbs directly from source and through traders that he has dealt with for over 30 years.
The Teamakers at Smith blend in small batches to ensure that the leaves and flowers packed are not crushed. Inside the Smith sachet, the shape is not unusual, but the artistry is unique. The roomy, relaxed fit biodegradable sachet encourages greater leaf expansion to give you superior flavor. By blending and packing what is anticipated will sell in 30 days or less, Smith delivers the freshest tasting tea you have ever tasted. Smith gives consumers a unique perspective to the origins of each ingredient used in each blend. To learn exactly when and where the tea was harvested, blended and packed - along with personal thoughts on its character - please visit www.smithtea.com and enter the batch number on the bottom of the package. For example, enter batch # 90314 and you'll find Fez, an exciting combination of freshly harvested spearmint from Oregon, a touch of Australian lemon myrtle and fresh Chinese Mao Feng green tea. Fez artfully evokes old Morocco, and tastes best when shared with friends while lounging on pillows. It's a bit of inside knowledge Smith Teamakers are always happy to share.
Smith has a wide variety of white, green and black teas and caffeine free herbal infusions. Perfect as a mid-morning pick-me-up, or to bolster the spirit during the afternoon doldrums, Smith is a refreshing and invigorating alternative to traditional teas, coffee and sodas. For best flavor, bring freshly drawn filtered water to 190 degrees. Steep for three minutes. Along with a certain amount of wit, skill and je ne sais quoi, each cup of Smith contains some of the most wonderfully interesting ingredients found anywhere in the world.
