Are You Numified?-
This lovely Numi fan and Dad, brought his whole family to the Numi Tea Garden on their road trip. He was so excited to show the family…..

Now that's love. The tea garden is closed on Mondays but luckily, they caught co-founder Ahmed Rahim while he was there and he hooked them up with a bunch of goodies to take home with them!

Rise and Shine!

On Sunday, May 4th, some of the Numi ladies woke up bright and early and volunteered at the 5k Aztec Run, held at Lake Merritt in Oakland. Here is what Jen had to say about the event, “6 am ouch! Mariachi’s at the crack of dawn. But it was great to support our community and cheer on all the runners. Given the cold morning, our Numi Tea will certainly warm them up. Next year we shall have our own running team to do it. ”

YES WE WILL! Despite having to wake up at 6 in the morning we had a blast and not to mention it was all for a good cause! All of the proceeds benefit the educational programs of the Spanish Speaking Citizens Foundation.

Numi’s Flowering Tea in issue of TIME


Tea's Got a Brand New Bag

"Serious tea drinkers have always known that the perfect cup comes from loose leaves. Traditional tea bags may offer tidiness and convenience, but the taste is often lacking. The thickness of the bag means the tea inside must be ground until it is little more than dust, and when wet, the bag collapses onto itself, preventing the water from circulating through the leaves enough for a proper brew. But as interest in tea-drinking rises--U.S. tea sales have quadrupled in the past 10 years and are expected to grow from $6 billion in 2005 to $10 billion by 2010--tea-steeping innovations combining the best of both worlds (the flavor of leaf tea and the ease of a bag) are coming onto the market, changing the look and taste of a tea break."

Looking for an exciting way to spark conversation at your next dinner party? Consider Numi's "flowering" teas. Loose tea leaves are hand-sewn and assembled into flower-like clusters. No bags or filtres are necessary'simply drop the bundle (or "rosette") into a glass teapot and pour in hot water. The leaves unravel into a lovely "flower" as the tea brews. Each ingredient in Numi teas is certified organic and free of artificial additives and is harvested according to fair-trade practises. If you're not in the mood for flowers, bagged teas come in 21 varieties - each including 2.2 grams of full-leaf tea, which produce a rich and natural flavour. The website has useful information regarding processing, health benefits and preparation. > Boxed teas begin at $5.99 for 16 to 18 bags. numitea.com
