We are passionate about what we call ‘Tea Artistry’ and this comes to life in a number of ways. It’s always in our unwavering commitment to the creative craft, standards of excellence and blending precision we apply to making our tea. It all begins with the art of selecting tea from the world’s finest tea gardens.
We nurture our relationships with suppliers to deliver on ethical business practices. Where possible we hand-pluck only the top two leaves and bud of the tea plant to ensure the leaf stays intact. During blending, our artistry relies on selecting the best teas at the right time of year, blending for consistent taste and aroma, and ensuring our rigorous standards are never compromised.
Over many years, our skilled Tea Masters hone the sophisticated art of tea tasting. They taste up to 500 cups a day and are able to distinguish different characteristics from cup to cup. Finally the art of brewing is where the journey of our tea ends. In our humble opinion, we believe there is a knack to brewing the perfect cup of Ahmad Tea.

Exploring the history, geography, culture and production of tea in Japan.
Renowned as the epitome of Englishness, the cup of tea has a rich tradition in the British Isles. But there are many other countries where tea history goes back much further, where tea customs are very different to those of the British. Here we take a look at the history and traditions of some tea-loving cultures.
Arguably the best known of the teas to come out of Japan, matcha has found its way into a variety of foods and beverages. Although relatively new in Western countries, this vibrant green tea powder has been enjoyed in Japan for over 800 years and is used for the meditative, elaborate Japanese tea ceremony.
For obvious reasons Tea Tasters at Ahmad Tea HQ are some of the most envied people in the organisation. And never were they more so than in late August when they took a trip to the spectacular region of Assam in northern India to visit some of the world’s top tea estates. Here are some notes from their Tea Travels.
Having such a unique and interesting profession makes Ahmad Tea’s Tea Tasters quite a hit at dinner parties (if they do say so themselves)
