Seasonal Teas from Teance

Teance is a local tea company from Berkeley, California, established to introduce true artisan teas.
Fresh, seasonal, handcrafted teas are personally selected from mountains of origin in Asia.
These single lots, unblended teas are showcased for their nuanced and complex tastes, reflecting
the climates in which they are grown. Each season, buyers from Teance travel to boutique, often
remote, high mountain farms, to taste and select these limited batches for our community and

White Peony Longevity Brows (White tea from Fujian, China) Full of silver, whole buds, and lush green leaves. Named after the beautiful peony flower for the highest grade, the plucked buds somewhat resemble a large silver eyebrow shape. One of the most highly regarded and the most popular of all White Teas, White Peony is alternately sun dried, then indoor hot air dried for natural processing. Its brew is slightly sweet and melon like, with a bright, fresh lingering after taste. Low caffeine. |

Four Seasons (Oolong tea from Nantou, Taiwan) Grown and crafted by a tea competition judge, our Four Seasons Oolong is sweet, floral who is extremely discriminating and meticulous about the crafting of his tea. His nursery is renowned for its care and continued research and development into new tea varietals that meet the ever-changing climates, such as global warming. His teas are some of the most pure and nuanced that we have tasted in Taiwan. Medium caffeine. |

Keemun Mao Feng (Black tea from Qimen, Anhui, China) This superior grade of Keemun has sleek black leaves, a rich amber infusion, and a complex aroma that is distinctive and penetrating without being floral. Keemun is the most distinctive tea in any English Breakfast Tea blend. Avoiding blends, we enjoy Keemun 'straight up' for breakfast. High caffeine. |
