Zealong Tea
Share
100% New Zealand Grown Tea Waikato, New Zealand: an unlikely yet perfect home of some of the best tea in the world.
A special Garden of Eden, where tea grows naturally, free from chemical sprays or fertilisers. Pure air, sunshine, water and the most fertile soil give Zealong a remarkable freshness in flavour and fragrance that excites even the most jaded tea drinker. Grown as nature intended, Zealong's hand-picked leaves are thicker and have more flavour, allowing up to six or seven infusions from one serving.
In Autumn and Winter, the gorgeous Waikato morning mist transforms our Tea Estate into something truly mystical.
It's the perfect time to sit back, boil the kettle and enjoy a warming cup of certified organic tea.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for Explore Zealong.
It was wonderful to welcome visitors who travelled from across both the North and South Islands to spend the day with us. Bringing together at least 900 people from so many different backgrounds and cultures over tea made the occasion especially memorable.
A small look back at the day and our thanks to everyone who was part of it.
Our farm team are preparing our machine display for our upcoming Explore Zealong Open Day.
