SRI LANKAN & INDIAN BLACK TEA
Generally speaking, black tea from Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon) and India are what the western world is used to drinking. They are mostly produced to be served with a little sweetener and a touch of milk. Of course there are teas from these regions that are absolutely delicious without any additions such as Darjeeling teas which come from high elevations in northern India. And Earl Greys which are made with bergamot flavor and can be sipped without any alterations, though they do make great lattes.
Many of these teas will also make excellent iced teas to cool you down.

CHINESE, TAIWANESE, & JAPANESE BLACK TEA
Here we have teas that are a little more diverse than other categories and have a broader spread of tasting notes, from chocolate to wine - they tend to be naturally a little sweeter than Indian or Sri Lankan teas so no need for for any additions (unless you're looking for a sweet treat).
Steep them for a little less time, steep them again and again, sit back and enjoy the flavors. Perfect teas for pulling out your favorite gaiwan.

CHAI (OUR SPECIALTY)
Designed to be served with milk and sugar, but just as delicious on their own, our award-winning chai line-up has been served all over New England and beyond. We spent hours and hours across several years to develop these blends to mimic authentic Indian style beverages while bringing them into the western realm.
Another fun fact: by our calculation, through our wholesale program in the last year, MEM Tea has proudly helped cafes & restaurants around New England and the U.S. serve nearly 2.5 million chai lattes. AND since our wholesale customers brew the tea themselves using our loose leaf chai, this has prevented 630,000 unrecyclable chai concentrate cartons from entering landfills.
A nation of chai drinkers will agree: We've nailed it!

BLACK PYRAMID TEA BAGS
Our teabags, or ‘pyramids’ contain the same high quality loose leaf tea and blends that we sell as whole leaf orthodox tea. The teas are blended in our warehouse in Wakefield, MA and sent to a facility that packages them into pyramids. The pyramids are roomy enough to allow the tea to unfurl and steep properly. Our tea bags are composed of Soilon which is a Polylactic acid (PLA)-based material that is biodegradable, and the seams are heat-sealed rather than sealed with plastic in order to maintain the integrity and safety of their makeup.

IDEAL TEAWARE FOR BLACK TEA
Black tea is such a broad and popular style of tea, it's definitely hard to choose how to brew it. We recommend western style teapots for your Sri Lankans, Indians, and tea blends - gaiwans (or small gong fu style teapots) for the Chinese, Taiwanese, & Japanese teas. Of course, the in mug infusers make clean-up a breeze if your sipping at work.
