Our Teas are Different

• Wildly Caffeinated: These blends are caffeinated with Yaupon Holly, a native North American relative of Yerba Mate. Yaupon provides clean, sustained energy without the crash or jitters of coffee. The L-Theanine in Yaupon smooths out the caffeine absorption and promotes an alert calm. Yaupon is antioxidant-rich and contains catechins, flavonoids, and polyphenols with lower tannin levels than coffee, making it gentler on the stomach.

• Functional Teas: Research-backed botanicals and indigenous knowledge are gathered for our blends. These blends support specific wellness goals—from cognitive function to detoxification and metabolic support.

• Specialty Teas: True specialty blends and favorites for high tea parties. These blends can be served either hot or iced as a healthy soda replacement. Perfect for mornings, evenings, or anytime you want a delicious pick-me-up.

Practices

• Lorica Tea is a branchlet of Good Tilth Farm & Nursery, where the Yaupon, Moringa, and some select herbs are grown with Korean Natural Farming methods and permaculture practices. The remaining herbs are sourced from certified organic and regenerative growers.

• Whether grown by our partners or us, every tea is blended to nourish your body and transform your health, one sip at a time. If you are interested in growing your own teas, visit Good Tilth.

• Resiliency & Diversity: The herbs selected for our blends are native or resilient to drought, deluge, and pest pressure.
