How will my order be shipped?
FAQ-Beitrag
We use the market leader DHL for shipping larger packages. We send smaller shipments cost-efficiently with Deutsche Post. When shipping with the German Post, we can unfortunately not provide you with tracking.
Whether by DHL or Deutsche Post: Shipping is guaranteed to be climate neutral.
It all depends on the variety. Therefore, you can find the info you need on the product page and the products themselves.
However, here are some basic tips:
The water should always be fresh. Optimally, the water has been filtered – but of course this is not a must. For temperatures, you can use the following table as a guide:
Type | Water temperature |
---|---|
Black tea | 100° |
Green tea and white tea | 70° |
Herbal, fruit and rooibos tea | 100° |
Oolong | 85°C-95°C |
Herbal, fruit and rooibos teas should steep for about 8 minutes, while for green and white teas and oolong, the brewing time may be reduced to about 2-5 minutes.
Tip: To influence the taste ideally for you, you can turn two screws. This is, on the one hand, the amount of tea you use for the infusion and, on the other hand, the infusion time. The more tea and the longer it brews, the more intense the flavor. However, you cannot extend the infusion time indefinitely, as green and black teas in particular will otherwise become bitter. Just take our preparation instructions for the individual items as a starting point to meet your taste better and better, bit by bit with small changes. Good luck!
The cans are made of 100% paper and do not contain any plastic. Thus, they are easily recyclable. The core of the sleeve is made of 100% recycled paper. This again significantly reduces the ecological footprint.

Yes, unfortunately that is the case. To put a concrete figure on it, our sustainable, compostable and plastic-free bags cost about ten times as much to purchase as the plastic bag most competitors use. The same applies, of course, to the other packaging material: from cartons, filling material to banderoles and labels.
Our vision is to package tea sustainably for all – only together can we make a difference. This is not achieved with eco-surcharges to optimize profit margins. Therefore, we try to absorb these high costs as much as possible or compensate them in other places (for example, the low-cost shipping via Deutsche Post).
