Why can't we find a decent cup of tea?
Is the question we asked in 2020
BACKGROUND
Tea is the most consumed beverage in the world after water.
The tea industry is a hundreds of year old colonial business. Founded on exploitation and slavery.
99% of all tea in the world is produced on plantages. On a plantage you will nerver find biological diversity but you will find a lot of pesticides, fertilizers and huge amount of watering.
The working conditions at a plantage has not changed a lot over 400 hundred years. They are still to put it mildly appalling.
COWASUN PRODUCT
The wild growing tea leafs are unique in the world and has grown wild in the region for thousands of years. These trees can be over 50 meters high and the tea leafs grow without pesticides, fertilizers or irrigation. Far away from human impact.
We have let some of the world's most famous and prestigious Gastronomers / Guide Michelin Chefs try our products and we have got their blessings! Our Leafs are also represented at PRADA and Four Season. Our goal is to be a global sustainable premium brand with more interesting products to come. We have come far in our innovation process and can see very interesting markets for our new products to come.
In 2015, the United Nations issued 17 Sustainable Development Goals to achieve sustainable development for all. We are now contributing to 12 of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals.
