Organic Tea (Canadian)
As I travel through Canada, I’ve been searching for organic tea that’s blended and sold in Canada—Canadian tea blenders, brands, and shops. Below are the details I’ve gathered so far. I’ve listed these in order of what I tend to consider the most sustainable first, but this is an ever-changing list as I discover more details. And what’s the next best thing if one can’t visit Canada? Buy this tea online, directly from these Canadian tea brands and shops.
