Globally certified as The Drink of The Wise and all time rival to coffee, black tea has been beloved by all for centuries. Enjoyed by Aristocrats, Royals, Scholars, Monks and Nobles for centuries, for its rich flavor and ability to promote heightened cognitive ability. Enjoy it by a roaring fireplace on a cold snowing winter day, enjoy it while the depths of your imagination are incased in a good book, enjoy it during a deeply focused study session or just enjoy it just because it’s delicious. Brook & Barrel Organic Black Tea is naturally loaded with polyphenols, which have been proven to reduce inflammation and even fight cancer. Tea plants also contain Anti-Oxidants that help prevent cell damage related to aging, prevent the formation of senescent cells and can help prevent or treat various diseases. Black Tea has been proven in animal studies to fight aging and promote long life. Black Tea also contains Theaflavins and Thearubigins, which can help reduce your risk of diabetes, high blood sugar and obesity. Unlike beverages overly loaded with sugar, black tea can reduce your risk of heart disease. One large review of studies found that for every cup of tea consumed daily, there was a 4% lower risk of death from heart disease, 2% lower risk of heart attack and other cardiovascular events, a 4% lower risk of stroke, and a 1.5% lower risk of death from all causes. Above all, the reason black tea is considered The Drink of The Wise, is because of it’s ability to improve brain function. This is because Black tea contains caffeine and an amino acid called L-theanine, which has been scientifically proven to improve alertness and focus. L-theanine increases alpha activity in the brain, resulting in relaxation and better focus. Studies have found that beverages containing L-theanine and caffeine have the greatest impact on focus due to the effects of L-theanine on the brain. This may be why many individuals report more stable energy after drinking tea, compared to other caffeinated beverages like coffee, which is how black tea has remained coffee’s greatest rival for centuries.

Why We Use Glass Packaging:

The majority of tea packaging such as Tin, Metal and Paper, contains harmful toxins and carcinogens that not only risk the health of consumers, but also reduce the quality and flavor of the product. Products made from Wood, such as Paper for example, which is often used in tea bags and tea containers, are processed with and naturally contains Formaldehyde, a known cancer causing substance. Data strongly suggest a link between formaldehyde exposure from paper products and high increase risk in developing cancer. In fact, a series of recent scientific studies found large amounts of formaldehyde, as well as other toxic substances, in tea bags, containers, packaging, bag adhesives and in non-organic tea samples, far above the accepted minimum limit. Brook & Barrel Corp, cares for the health of both the environment and the health of our consumers above all else, for this reason we have done tireless research on this matter and based on these findings have now vowed to only use glass or quality (chemical free) packaging for our products.
