Yet another great local producer joined us on Tuesday, Phil Burnett from Carslake Tea. Carslake Tea Company is a family business established in North Wales in 2014 due to a passionate interest in the range and variety of whole leaf teas produced around the World, and also the belief that they were not readily available to us, the everyday person.

Phil works with some of the finest blenders to create his wide range of interesting and great tasting range, his offering is now up to just under 80 different varieties of Black, Green, Herbal and Decaffeinated Teas.

We were lucky enough to try a few from his range; Pina Colada Fruit Infusion, Strawberry and cream Pu-erh and Mojito Green Tea. The Mojito Green Tea, was a personal favourite, obviously green teas are favoured by many due to their many health benefits but Phil adds some interesting flavours which just make the green tea more palatable, it was very refreshing and smells amazing. We then tried the Strawberry and cream Pu-erh a double fermented Black tea, which is very dark in colour, flavoured with Fruit giving it a great rich taste. So our final tasting, doesn’t actually contain any of the tea plant, the infusion packed full of flavour comes from Pineapple, Papaya, Coconut Hibiscus and other fruits which creates great pink colour in the cup and adds a refreshing taste.

You can find Phil’s tea at many local farmers markets and events as well as on his website, and if you’re not sure about loose leaf tea because you don’t have the right tea pot don’t worry Phil has the solution to that as well with everything from travel mugs to teapots and infusers all with built in strainers.
