Awards & Accolades
You Can Taste the Difference We offer exquisite teas and herbal infusions of exceptional character and rich underlying attributes. Combining the ancient tea blending principles that began with the earliest monks and herbalists with the latest health research, Zhena's Gypsy Tea produces hand-crafted, premium quality, all natural and organic healthy infusions to please the palate and delight the senses. We take pride in selling only teas that are 100% organic and 100% Fair Trade certified. Cause and Affect Tea A commitment to social responsibility and the well-being of others has grown Zhena's Gypsy Tea from a small humble band of loyal Gypsy Tea consumers to a growing successful brand. Our mission is to enrich the lives of people everywhere through our offerings of only the healthiest and freshest teas, herbs and botanicals available. Because our teas are not mass-grown, but are nurtured, cultivated and hand processed by tea artisans, it is possible for us to offer the finest grades of unique and special harvests that protect the body and pamper the senses. Zhena’s Gypsy Tea doesn't just market products, it markets meaning, teas with a commitment to social responsibility, sustainability and the well-being of others. A community minded, pro-active company and one of the pioneer supporters of the Fair Trade Model, Zhena’s Gypsy Tea works directly with small growers and out of the way tea gardens to affect change by providing these workers with healthcare, guaranteed maternity leave, childcare, literacy, better working conditions, and autonomy. Are All the Ingredients in Zhena’s Gypsy Tea Natural? Zhena’s Gypsy Tea offers only the purest, most natural teas. All of our hand-blended teas and infusions integrate only the finest, highest grade, natural essential oils of fruits and flowers. A masterful orchestration of botanical benefits, our products are made fresh with expertly blended organic leaves, herbs, fruits, healthful flowers, spices and essential oils that delivers the sipper a true and tasty steep that is full of flavor and character. All the ingredients are certified GMO and allergen free, and are 100% natural and do not contain petrochemicals, dyes, artificial fragrances or preservatives. Uncompromising in these principles, we do not offer teas unless they meet these rigorous standards. What Does “Fair Trade” Mean? Fair Trade certification is a market-based model of international trade that benefits over one million farmers and farm workers in 58 developing countries across Africa, Asia and Latin America. Fair Trade certification enables consumers to vote for a better world with their dollars, simply by looking for the Fair Trade Certified label on the products they buy. Fair Trade Certified agricultural products including coffee, tea and herbs, cocoa and chocolate, fresh fruit, sugar, rice, and spices (vanilla) are currently available at over 35,000 retail establishments in the U.S. Fair Trade empowers farmers and farm workers to lift themselves out of poverty by developing the business skills necessary to compete in the global marketplace. By guaranteeing minimum floor prices and social premiums, Fair Trade enables producers to invest in their farms and communities and protect the environment. Zhena’s Gypsy Tea stands in solidarity with the tea workers and empowers them by paying a pro-active premium which provides and supports fair wages and added benefits such as better housing, healthcare, education and a sustainable environment. In order to provide these benefits, Zhena’s premium is up to ten times more than conventional prices paid by many tea companies. The workers in Zhena’s gardens benefit from guaranteed health insurance, education, safe working conditions and no child labor. Every time you purchase Zhena’s Gypsy Tea you join in the Fair Trade movement and become an advocate for humane working conditions worldwide. Our Tea Leaves Aren’t The Only Thing That’s Green Zhena’s Gypsy Tea realizes that the health of our environment is a reflection of the choices we make and the actions we take. They care so much about how we impact our environment that they’ve chosen to hold themselves responsible and take action. By committing green practices such as buying wind power through the purchase of green tags to offset the company’s carbon footprint (how much CO2 they produce through production and electricity costs), they hope to set an example for other companies and individuals to follow. Their environmental approach begins at the very source by focusing on the impact of how the ingredients in the products are grown and continues all the way through to the packaging they use. The use of minimal, eco-friendly materials for packaging, represents a lesser impact on the environment. |
