TEA & TISANE

What is TEA?

For thousands of years, the Camellia Sinensis leaves have been the fundamental source for white, green, oolong, and black teas. The tea leaves resemble the delicate tongue of a sparrow, thus the name "Jaksul", which means "sparrow's tongue".

Health Benefits of Tea

People enjoy tea for various reasons. Tea can be an excuse to sit down with a friend, to relax after a long day or simply to quench a thirst. Regardless of the reason, every cup of tea holds within the secret to a healthier life. 

The name and grade of a tea depends on the time picked and the method of production. All tea coming from the camellia sinensis leaves share the same health benefits (amount of each component may vary).

What is TISANE?

Tisane is the French term for aromatic or herb-flavored tea. An herb is a flowering plant whose stem above ground does not become woody; such a plant when valued for its medicinal properties, flavor, scent, or the like. (Tisanes are generally caffeine-free.)

Contains about 10 vital components that help lower blood pressure levels and control blood sugar levels. Mulberry leaves have a high content of rutin (strengthens capillary vessels) and gaba (lowers blood pressure), both which have been shown to lower cholesterol levels and help prevent cerebral apoplexy, hypertension and arteriosclerosis.
 
Often referred to as Gamro Cha, this tisane comes from a specific species of hydrangea plant found in the high-altitude mountains of South Korea (not the same as the flowers found in your backyard!). This medicinal herb steeps a light golden color with a natural sweet flavor that lingers in the mouth. Shown to be effective for stopping coughs and alleviation of fever, it is also used as a natural sweetening agent (an alternative for sugar - safe for diabetics), hydrangea will purify and refresh the head and throat. Bathing or washing up in this water will cleanse the skin and drinking this infusion after eating, working out or drinking will quench thirst and soothe the body.
