Judged by over 400 of the most demanding palates including Masterchef judge and restaurant critic Charles Champion, BBC Food Programme presenter Sheila Dillon, Great British Bake Off winner Frances Quinn, MasterChef 2013 Natalie Coleman, food buyers from Harrods, Fortnum & Mason, Selfridges, Harvey Nichols and Whole Food Markets, and chefs including Michelin Star chef Russell Brown, Great Taste is widely acknowledged as the most respected food accreditation scheme for artisan and speciality food producers.
Neeraj Agarwal, Co-Founder and CEO of Tea People, was thrilled to hear what the judges had to say about their Choco Mint Rooibos. “Quite a clever combination. A beautiful bright colour, the aroma of an ‘After Eight ‘ mint, and the pleasant flavour stays on the palate. Gentle floral overtone in the mouth, generally a well-balanced drink, very refreshing.”
“Tea People is a new company and this was the first time we had entered the Great Taste Awards. Our small start-up team has worked tirelessly to make sure we are bringing great tasting teas from all over the world to ignite the palate of our consumers. Our in-house tea expert Vishaka has created many wonderful blends and we are absolutely delighted to have received the Great Taste Award. This award now places our teas at the top 6.95% of all 10,000 products judged and at par with the finest food and drinks companies in the UK. We are now looking forward to creating more such teas for our bespoke clients, who can use our expertise to have their own unique blends from an award winning company. We will be showcasing this new feather in our cap at the various trade shows including the Speciality and Fine Food Fair and the BBC Good Food Shows in London” explains Neeraj.
Congrats to you Tea People! This is the start of many awards to come… 🙂
