Immuni-Tea Herbal Infusion

Black tea is fully oxidized tea, giving it its distinctive dark color and intense aromas. Unlike green tea or white tea, the leaves of black tea undergo natural fermentation after harvest before being dried. This transformation brings out woody, spicy notes, sometimes malty, depending on the terroir and the variety.

At Pure Tea, our selection of black teas is 100% without additives, chosen for its aromatic richness and refined character. A must-have for lovers of bold, comforting flavors.

Black tea is rich in antioxidants, especially flavonoids (theaflavins and thearubigins), which help combat oxidative stress. It also contains a moderate dose of caffeine, making it a great companion for improving concentration and alertness without the abrupt effects of coffee.

Some studies also suggest a role in cholesterol regulation and supporting cardiovascular metabolism. Enjoying quality black tea, like the one offered by Pure Tea, means combining taste pleasure and everyday well-being, naturally.

Our Assam black tea is grown in the Assam region in north-eastern India, renowned for its bold, full-bodied black teas. The tropical climate, fertile soils, and Himalayan mists create ideal conditions for producing a tea with intense, slightly spicy malty notes.

At Pure Tea, we select only plantations where work is done by hand, in respect of tradition and the environment. This Assam black tea is the perfect foundation for our energizing recipes, like our Assam black Maté Lemon Ginger.

Yes, black tea naturally contains theine, which is actually the same molecule as caffeine. One cup of black tea contains on average 40 to 60 mg of caffeine, depending on the variety, the amount steeped, and the steeping time.

Good news: unlike coffee, the caffeine in tea is released more slowly, thanks to the presence of tannins. This means a gentler, longer-lasting effect, without a spike or an energy crash.

For a lighter version, you can start with a short first infusion (30 seconds), discard it, then steep the same leaves again.

A quality black tea can be recognized by several features:

• Whole or rolled leaves, with no dust
• A rich aroma, without any musty or damp notes
• A bright, glossy liquor, amber with a deep red tone once brewed
• A taste, with no excessive bitterness or metallic aftertaste

At Pure Tea, we work directly with passionate producers, select teas that are freshly harvested, and refuse industrial blends. The result: a high-end pure black tea that’s truly delicious.

Black tea naturally contains caffeine (on average 40 to 60 mg per cup), so it is not recommended for children under 12.

For pregnant women, moderate consumption is possible, provided that you do not exceed 200 mg of caffeine per day, from all sources combined (tea, coffee, chocolate…). So, one to two cups of black tea can fit into a balanced lifestyle during pregnancy, as long as you discuss it with a healthcare professional.

At Pure Tea, all our teas are free from pesticide residues and contain no additives, making them a safer choice for occasional consumption in this context.

Black tea is sensitive to humidity, light, and strong odors. To keep it fresh for as long as possible, we recommend storing it in an airtight container, away from direct light and temperature fluctuations.

Avoid keeping it in the refrigerator or near fragrant spices.

All our Pure Tea teas are packed in eco-designed, opaque, resealable pouches—made to protect freshness and the intensity of the aromas until the very last cup.
