Our expertise: the selection of varieties and flavourings

Grown mainly in Asia (China, India, Japan, Ceylon, etc.) and in Africa (Kenya, Malawi), the leaves of the tea plant, or Camellia Sinensis, offer a broad range of flavours, depending on their origin, quality and processing. For over a century, the Kusmi Tea firm has been acquiring firm experience in choosing different kinds of tea and flavours, and in blending them. Kusmi Tea chooses the best sources and qualities to make exceptional teas: black, green, natural, flavoured. Exclusive blends are still made according to the same principles: meticulous selection of the teas (India, China or Ceylon), development of balanced blends, flavouring with the finest natural essences from Grasse, Calabria or Madagascar.

These jealously guarded recipes are behind the on-going success of these unparalleled, exquisite, timeless teas.

Kusmi Teas are available as loose leaf tea or in muslin bags, packaged in unique and colourful tins which have kept the already modern-looking Baroque style of the original labels.

To add to its prize at the International Exhibition in London in 1911, gold medal in Hamburg in 1927 and gold medal at the Paris Culinary and Gastronomic Exhibition in 1927, the Kusmi Tea firm took part in four prestigious international shows in 2002 and was awarded medals at each of these events for the fine quality of its teas and their packaging.
