“It helps that we have good relationships with our tea producers and suppliers. They know our standards for tea and send us their best.”
— Luzianne® Tea Master Malcolm Shalders
The Journey
of a Tea Leaf
Our generations of strong business relationships with growers and suppliers worldwide allow us to choose the best teas for our blend. Our tea masters analyze promising tea samples by an elaborate tasting and evaluation process similar to that of wine tasting, known as “cupping.” Their sophisticated palates help to identify teas with the perfect characteristics for our special blend.
Mastering the Art of Tea
How is it that Luzianne® Iced Tea is always so satisfying and refreshing? We continue to use our original formula, which we specially blended for iced tea in 1932. We carefully select teas from across 5 continents for their color, flavor and clarity so that when blended and brewed, the result is that distinctive Luzianne® Iced Tea flavor.
