Ch\u00e1 da Vov\u00f3 from S\u00edtio Shimada is an unusual black tea from S\u00e3o Paulo state, Brazil. Most tea in Brazil is grown in this state as the climate and landscape provide excellent tea growing conditions. Most Brazilian-grown teas are destined for the tea bag and tea extract markets and therefore are not of very good quality. Ch\u00e1 da Vov\u00f3 grown by the Shimada Family is an exception to this as they produce a true artisanal style tea of highest quality that is grown in a biodynamic fashion and to organic standards. We source this tea directly from S\u00edtio Shimada (previously known as Obaatian). October 2019 harvest.<\/p>\n
