BEAUTIFUL ORGANIC TEA AND INFUSIONS | ETHICALLY SOURCED
Tielka has won an incredible 9 medals at the 2019 Golden Leaf Awards, eclipsing Tielka's incredible 2018 result of 8 medals.
Across 8 categories, Tielka won two bronze, one silver and 6 gold awards. This brings the total tally over two years to two bronze, three silver and 12 gold.
A particularly proud win for Tielka was the bronze medal in the black tea (blended - non flavoured) category, a highly competitive category where Tielka won bronze for their 2018 harvest Tielka Breakfast Black Tea. "Unfortunately we were not able to enter a 2019 harvest sample, as it was still in harvest, but the fact that the 2018 harvest sample still raised eye-brows and got an incredible result is testament to the level of quality that the Tielka tea collection brings.", says founder Rebecca Domorev. All of Tielka's black teas use Tielka Breakfast Black Tea as a base for their blends.
For the second year, Tielka has won big in the teabag category, taking home six medals, including four gold, one silver and two bronze. For the first time, Tielka entered their Lemon Ginger Herbal Infusion, which won silver, just behind Tielka's best-seller Limonada Rosa Herbal Infusion, which won gold.
The results have cemented Tielka's position as having Australia's most highly awarded tea bag collection, with a total nine gold, two silver and one bronze for their teabags alone.
"It's fantastic that we can offer a tea collection housed in plastic-free, biodegradable, plant-based teabag fabric, but to hold so many awards really does show the world that Tielka is something special. After 10 years of dedicated hard work and determination to succeed, this is such an encouragement as it speaks volumes to our customers. And if our customers can have a beautiful moment in their day with Tielka tea every day, I feel like the joy that this will bring makes it so worthwhile", says Rebecca Domorev.

It's the early hours of a Tuesday.
Visions of my son falling over the side of a sailing boat with no one in earshot have disturbed my sleep. I can see him falling, again and again, the dark sea capturing him. No amount of repeating the sequence in my mind can change the outcome. I have to get up.
Do you inwardly cringe when someone refers to peppermint as tea? Have you ever wondered why some brew tea, while others infuse, or even steep tea? There is great debate about the correct terminology when it comes to tea, herbs, botanicals, and proper preparation thereof. And as with most tea lovers, the great debate exists almost entirely within a few vexing thoughts. So, to put some of those vexing thoughts at ease, we thought we'd clarify a few things for you.
