“Better to be deprived of food for three days than deprived of tea
for one day” The Healthy Beverage Company is very particular about the type of green tea that is used to brew Steaz. Our Ceylon Tea, which is universally known as the finest tea in the world, comes from the mystical island of Sri Lanka. Steaz is brewed from specially selected tender green tea leaves of healthy tea bushes, which have been organically grown on Sri Lanka’s eastern hills, where the ecological conditions are unlike anywhere else on Earth. The cold climate, abundant sunshine, seasonal yet ample rain and fertile soil are prime factors that contribute to the cultivation and production of high quality tea. This part of the country is also blessed with North-East and South-West monsoonal rain and experiences an acute drought from July thru September. Although green and black tea come from the same warm weather evergreen, Camellia sinensis, the delicate green tea leaves are not fermented like black tea. Green tea leaves are steamed quickly before packaging, ensuring minimal processing and maximum health benefits. Green tea’s health benefits have been have been researched extensively over the past decade. The findings have focused on a group of naturally occurring antioxidants in green tea: polyphenols, flavonoids, and catechins. Science is just beginning to discover what nature has known for millions of years. Visit our FAQ page to learn more about green tea’s health benefits.
