What is Purple Tea?
Purple tea is purple because of the natural anthocyanin content in the leaves. Just like in blueberries, cherries, and other red/purple foods, these anthocyanins act as super-antioxidants, and provide many health benefits! Purple Tea leaves are also an excellent source of natural GHG polyphenols, which are known for their fat-burning properties.
All tea comes from the jade green leaves of the tea plant, except for purple tea. Purple tea originates in Kenya, and due to the presence of super-antioxidants called anthocyanins, the organically-grown purple tea leaves are actually purple! Purple tea is made with a similar process to Green tea, but has more antioxidants, less caffeine, and a totally delicious, award-winning taste.
The rolling hills of Kenya is the only place in the world that purple tea grows. Kenya has produced tea since the early 1900’s, but this unique Purple tea was first grown in 2011. Organically grown on small-scale mashamba (farms), every purchase of Purple tea supports tea farming communities in Western Kenya.
JusTea stands for Justly Made Tea. They are proud members of the Fair Trade Federation. And they travel back and forth to Kenya, offering you the first and only farmer-direct Kenyan tea! Farmer-direct means that JusTea buys tea directly from the farmer, instead of through sales brokers like most other tea companies. This farmer-direct model means you receive the freshest tea possible and the farmer receives a fair wage! JusTea is not just a feel good story though, their teas taste amazing and have won numerous awards for their premium flavor and beautiful packaging. They are also the first company to offer new Purple Tea! This unique tea variety only grows in Kenya and is the healthiest tea you can drink! Purple Tea contains more antioxidants than Green Tea with less than half the caffeine.
