Tulsi ( Krishna )

Krishna Tulsi (also known as Shyama Tulsi or Purple Leaf Tulsi) - A purple plant with a clove-like aroma and peppery flavor.

Tulsi, also known as Holy Basil, the Queen of Herbs, the Incomparable One and The Mother Medicine of Nature, is as powerful a medicine as it is spiritual and holy. It is one of India's most sacred herbs, an aromatic shrub recognized for its spiritually uplifting and healing properties. In Ayurveda, Tulsi has been cherished for its unique medicinal properties. Today modern science has confirmed many of these properties, recognizing Tulsi as one of nature’s most powerful medicines.

There are three types of Tulsi sold by Shanti Tea: Krishna, Rama, and Vana. All varieties belong to the mint family and are cousins of sweet basil. They differ slightly in aroma and flavour profile but their medicinal properties are very similar.
Krishna (Ocimum tenuiflorum) is known for its peppery crisp taste.
Rama (Ocimum tenuiflorum) is known for its cooling and mellow flavor.
Vana (Ocimum sp.), aka. "forest type", is known for its beautifully rich fragrance.

Of the three types of tulsi, Krishna Tulsi is often considered to be the most beneficial to health, followed closely by Rama Tulsi. Vana Tulsi has less potency, but it is sometimes blended with other types of tulsi for a more pleasing flavor.

Tulsi is one of my favourite teas, and so healing. I really enjoyed this tulsi and found the taste to be beautiful. This is the only tulsi I have tried so far from Shanti, but I will definitely be buying it again as its high quality and 100g bag is a bigger bag than I though, so lasts a good amount of time which I love.

Did not like this tulsi, it was very medicinal in flavour. I bought all three types to try side by side and of the three Vana was my favourite and krishna was disliked. Also had family members try it and they agreed that this one was not pleasant.

Tea Legends: The Samurai and the Tea Master

For centuries tea has been a symbol of inner harmony, especially in the time-honored country of Japan. Indeed, the Ancient Japanese honed the craft and the art of the tea ceremony. The Orient's appreciation for tea is even viewed in its rich, ancient tea legends that were designed to instruct people as to the methods of unlocking their own inner peace, their Zen. The Samurai and the Tea Master is just such a tale that capitalizes on the power of inner tranquility over outward strength. The story is set in Ancient Japan, and the hero is not a Samurai, but a tea master.

The Beauty of Pears

On a meditative fall morning, there is nothing better than to haul out a big bag of pears, fresh-picked from the backyard or the overly prolific tree down the street, and wash, peel, core and chop them for an entire vat of pear sauce. Or, sometimes even more gratifying, to press them into cider or turn them into a delicious pie or crumble. If you’re the type of person who delights in this sometimes humble fruit, then our organic Fujian Pear tea is sure to be a hit.
