Tea Term Tuesdays: Exploring Unique Flavors from Around the World with Single-Origin Teas

Single-origin tea reflects the unique flavors and characteristics of the region it comes from, offering an authentic connection to its terroir. Unlike single-estate tea, which is sourced from one specific garden, single-origin tea represents the broader essence of a region, with leaves often coming from multiple farms. Beyond flavor, single-origin teas support sustainability by promoting environmentally friendly practices and fair labor, helping preserve traditional farming methods and uplift rural communities. Each cup is a celebration of purity, traceability, and care for the planet.

John’s Big Black Takes: Companies Moving Away from DEI Are Racist

It was only a few years ago that corporate America made a fervent commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). CEOs issued lofty promises of racial justice, putting out statements on Black Lives Matter and committing to significant financial contributions for equity initiatives. But those headlines have since faded.
