Australian Tea












Many people don't realise that Australia produces a range of high quality black and green teas. The Tea Centre has two varieties that are defiantly worth a try.

Austrtalian Daintree


The Daintree tea is grow in Northern Queensland, just north of Port Douglas near Cairns at the Cubbagudta (means rainy place) plantation. The tea gardens are growing within and along the edges of the Daintree rainforest. The plantation does not use pesticides and so the tea contains no pesticide residues or tannic acid. The plantation is a family owned and operated business, totally Australian.

They produce a black tea with a red earthy tinge to the leaves which produce a light/mild brew with earthy undertones and gives a clean natural taste.
The tea can be taken with or without milk or used as a plain iced tea on a warmer day.

Australian Sencha


 The Australian sencha is a green tea with a soft gentle flavour, grown in several valleys in the Victorian Alps region. This tea is produced as a Japanese style tea however is not as strong as Japanese sencha. The softer flavour of the Australian sencha makes it a good option for people who find Japanese teas to strong or people who are not regular green tea drinkers.
 This tea is to be taken without milk and is great hot or iced.
