About Our Colombian Tea

Long known for its coffee, Colombia grappled with consistent armed conflict for more than 50 years — until 2016. Now, Colombia is experimenting with tea.

Our high-grown, hand-picked Colombian teas are cultivated at over 6,000 feet in the mist-capped Andes Mountains. The tea is grown in rich, deep, young volcanic soil that naturally promotes lush plant growth. Its nearness to the equator and consistent climate result in tasty, delicate tea-tips throughout the year. The farm from which we import, outside the town of Bitaco, is the only one of its kind in Colombia. It sits alongside a protected rain forest and the estate works with the Agricola Himalaya Foundation on social development of families in the community. Our Colombian teas are Certified Organic and UTZ Certified for sustainability.

I had forgotten how much I love Steepster and the community here. Thank you to all who are friends here. We may not know each other personally but I appreciate you nonetheless. Okay. Now that I’ve gotten all sappy it’s time to review this sipdown that is also the finale to this tea I’ve had for too long. I love coconut. I love black tea. So it truly does make for a good mix, especially with the volcanic notes you get from the Andean soil but it’s just never been one that I’ve seemed to drink above others. It does make a good latte though.

Not sappy at all to appreciate a community that accepts and supports all ‘weird tea’ drinkers :)

You know what I love about Steepster community? Noone bats an eye if you are drinking a tea bag or loose leaf or high-end pu-erh. All teas deserve love and they get it here. And sometimes, we find out flavours that we never thought they exist. And that causes an orders now and then :D

I think we are in a category by ourselves. No one understands that than by being one ourselves. We are a unique blend of people and I love the interactions between us.
