We set high standards for quality and safety, the cost for fair trade and organic tea label are very expensive cost that those hard working ecological tea farmers and we couldn’t afford. Based on the confidence about our collective commitment to the nature and traditions, we, therefore, sent our teas to European laboratory for the Pesticide Analysis with Zero pesticide report. So we can prove the organic nature based on the actual pesticide analysis report to prove its organic nature based on the European standards in Europe.
Once we obtained such safety confirmation, we then chose two tea, Honey Black and Formosa Beauty, to participate the International Taste & Quality competition this year. This is the first time we invested lots of money to participate such international quality assessment competition. The result was extremely rewarding that each has won 2 Golden Stars Award. Now we have established very good practice for the quality and safety standards to establish a consistent assessment standards. The two (2) Golden Stars Award does motivate us to continue our efforts to reserve the ecological balance and preserve the Chinese traditional tea processing techniques and wisdom by doing the right things and doing things right.
