Jade Temple Tea - Loose Leaf

We created Jade Temple Tea to calm your nervous system and boost your mood and immunity! Combining oolong tea with rose buds and lavender, helps with the mood and calms the nerves. In Chinese medicine, rosebuds and lavender are particularly good for women’s health. We added in some immune boosting Echinacea which can surprisingly promote the activity of T-cells, stimulate the growth of new tissue and reduce inflammation. A 2007 report analyzing the results of 14 studies, found that Echinacea supplementation could both significantly reduce the duration of the common cold and help prevent symptoms.

The short answer is yes BUT that is because most tea bags are made with bleached material, and are filled with cheap tea, fillers and low quality ingredients that are NOT good for health. If the ingredients do have any quality, it’s usually in a small tea bag, ground up and you will have to steep the tea for 4 to 5 minutes to get the flavor out.  Our tea bags are STUFFED with whole ingredients and are totally chemical free and compostable. You only have to steep the bag for 1 to 2 minutes to get a smooth flavor that will not have any bitterness.Some tea lovers also just prefer loose leaf tea so that they can make it themselves and appreciate the tea leaves, while also enjoying the varieties of beautiful tea ware that are found throughout Asian tea culture.

Each tea has varying steep times and the specific directions are on the bag of each one of our products. Generally, we recommend steeping for 1.5 to 2 minutes for the first steeping and 2.5 to 3 minutes or more for the second steeping. For a much stronger flavor, you can try up to 4 minutes but green, white and some oolong teas can become bitter if steeped too long.

Green and white teas have the least caffeine.  Oolong teas have more caffeine than green and white but vary depending on the type of oolong tea.  Red and Black teas have the most caffeine.
