    About Kanoka Tea Estate

    Kanoka Tea Estate is owned by husband and wife duo Pranab and Manmoyri. They have had the tea farm since 2007 and from 2014 the tea farm was fully organic, allowing them to offer beautiful organic hand-crafted teas. Their associate small tea growers in Assam adhere to global standards of sustainable, organic farming methods. They follow the strict standards set by India's National Programme for Organic Production (NPOP). Most importantly, fair wages are important for their vision. It is common to see tea workers in Assam and other neighbouring regions getting paid absurdly low wages for their hard work, even in this day and age. The unfair wages has resulted in social unrest in the region as workers demand fair pay. Quote "Here at ASSAMICA AGRO, we actively help our rural community by helping our associate farmers hire workers at fair wages, unaffected by the large conglomerates pressuring the area to underpay their workers to make a profit. Our farms have higher levels of worker pay than the average rate in Assam. The fair price we offer our associates allows them to afford fair wages for their hard-working employees. With every sale, we are helping to enhance our local economy by providing a real livelihood for farmworkers, improving living. standards in the region”.

    About East Trinity Cacao Farm

    The East Trinity Cocoa plantation overlooks the tropical city of Cairns, in North Queensland. This is where the rainforest merges with the Great Barrier Reef and the mountain water is clear as the air. It's the dark, rich soil that enables us to grow the best cocoa beans possible. Our farms run on solar power which gives us a 90% carbon-free environment. These cocoa trees are SG2 large hybrids. We have a further 19 different hybrid types growing on the farm and we also have donated 25 cocoa trees to James Cook University here in Cairns, for research to advance the Australian Cocoa industry. All the hybrids are grown from seed on the farm. We purchase the seeds from PNG from Jeff Mafu who is a world authority on pure Cocoa hybrids stains under his guidance we are able to achieve quality trees for our customers. The quality of pods is exceptional and the quality of the cocoa beans are superior and second to none.

    Tastes like hot chocolate - amazing

    This tastes just like a cup of hot cocoa, but better! I can't believe it's a tea. So yum and warming on a cold night.
