The scent of hot tea on a cold day, is there something even slightly better ? There are various of tea types, some are bad, some are good but some manually selected tea leaves and coffee beans are just fabulous. All of our coffees are purchased outright whereby a price is paid for the quality. We therefore divorce ourselves from the world coffee market and guarantee to pay a price that covers the cost of production and includes a healthy margin for the farmer which is always at least 20% above the cost of production. When sourcing coffee, quality is generally our first priority but when working with larger estates in Latin America, we feel it is essential to work alongside certifications such as Rainforest Alliance or Utz. These organisations have principles embedded in International Labour law (ILO) which assure us that a great price is not only paid to the farmer but that the benefits of working with a specialty buyer cascade down to all of the farm workers too. Such certifications also include environmental standards designed for the sustainability of agricultural land and its natural eco-systems.
Our tea pick today : Earl Grey: Perhaps the most famous of all black teas, earl grey is flavored with bergamot oil (which, for the few of you who aren’t huge bergamot fans, is an orangey citrus fruit), lending it a perfumey musk. Masala chai tea: Take black tea and add ginger and cardamon (and sometimes cinnamon, clove, or anise), then serve it with milk and sugar, and you get masala chai. This tea is especially popular in India, but it has found a home in contemporary Western coffeehouses in the last few decades. See extra info on Craft premium tea UK.
Eco friendly coffee advice of the day : Use Your Own Mug: Another super simple way to reduce paper waste is to use your own mug. This method doesn’t contribute to landfill crowding with paper cups, and makes you feel right at home. For many years, Starbucks promised to make a recyclable cup, but has failed to do so. It takes about 20 years for the standard Starbucks cup to decompose. That may not sound like such a long time, but when you consider that the USA goes through 60 billion of those cups per year, the problem becomes a lot bigger. Do the world a favor and start taking your own mugs and tumblers to coffee shops. The baristas will be glad to play a small part in reducing paper waste and you’ll feel proud of your eco-friendly coffee habit.

Having experimented with different beans, leaves and blends for generations we decided to start selling what we love. Source: https://lynchsbrew.co.uk/.
You may have noticed that our mascot is a lemur, this is simply due to a love the Lynch family has always shared for the animal!
