OUR TEAS: SHOP TEAS IN AUSTRALIA
Yahava premium leaf teas arrive in Australia from the tea estates, ready to drink. Unlike coffee there is no further processing required and the leaf is simply checked for quality and then bagged ready for use. The popularity of tea bags has prompted us to create ‘silk purse’ tea bags for drinkers throughout Australia incorporating high grade leaf tea. Unlike many traditional tea bags, the quality of our tea bags is guaranteed to be the equal of our leaf teas and the inert nature of the ‘silk purse’ won’t taint our tea’s delicate flavours. So now you can enjoy the convenience of a tea bag with all the flavours of premium leaf tea.
For those days when the doctor says to cut back – our selection of 12 teas has got you well covered. Green, White, Herbal, Black, simply pick your favourite. Big tea drinker? Subscribe to your favourite teas and choose how often you want to have them delivered wherever you are in Australia – then it will arrive each and every time without fail.
Black Teas
Black tea is fermented until the leaf oxidises and turns black before it is then dried. Fermentation enhances the flavour, strength and body of tea and our black teas present with great character. Amongst our black teas you will find the classic English Brekky alongside flavoured teas such as Earl Grey.
Green Teas
Green teas undergo far less processing than black teas and display lighter more delicate flavours. In this range is Peony, a white tea prized for its high levels of antioxidants and its sweet floral flavour.
Herbal Teas
Although not strictly a tea, herbal infusions throughout history have been coveted for their medicinal as well as their ‘social lubricating’ properties. Our herbal range comprises some of the most popular herbal beverages, including the ancient and delicious, Oriental, Masala Chai.
Premium Leaf Tea – One of the Best Teas in Australia
Most coffee drinkers are also lovers of tea. From the beginning we have had a range of teas that are sourced and procured with the same enthusiasm and thoroughness we apply to our coffee searches. Like our coffees, we source our teas only from the world’s finest gardens. Our range of leaf teas falls into three distinct categories; black teas, green teas and herbal teas.
All tea comes from the growing leaf tips of a bush called Camellia Sinensis and like coffee, tea thrives in hot, humid, tropical climes away from direct sunlight. The major difference between the various teas, is the degree and type of processing that is undertaken directly after harvest.

FAQs about Teas in Australia
Are Your Teas Available As Loose Leaf Tea Or In Tea Bags?
Four of Yahava’s 12 premium loose leaf teas also come in tea bags – (English Brekky, Earl Grey, Jasmine Green and Peppermint). When you buy premium tea or tea in Australia from Yahava, you can select between 25 Silk Purse Tea Bags or 50,100,125 and 250-gram packs of loose leaf teas depending on the variety, (weights vary due to tea type).
How Long Should I Steep My Tea?
For Black Tea, we suggest steeping it in 90°c hot water for 3-4 minutes, but you can experiment to find the flavour profile you most enjoy. Green Tea brewing times are slightly shorter at around 2 minutes. White Tea should only be steeped for 2 minutes, especially if you want to extract the delicate flavour. Dried Herbal tea should be steeped for around 2 to 3 minutes but you can alter these brewing times to find the tea strength and flavour that you like best. If you require the proper equipment to steep your tea, we recommend the Zero Teapot & Infuser as well as the Handybrew Tea & Coffee Maker from Yahava’s online shop. Add to cart now!
