Pure Ingredients. No Compromise.
We blend premium organic teas and herbs with only 100% real fruits, flowers and spices—and never any “natural” or artificial flavorings.
Why Organic Tea?
Organic certification is especially important when it comes to tea because tea leaves are not washed prior to processing. The first time tea leaves come into contact with water is when they steep, so any residual chemicals are released into your cup.

Aged Pu-erh Tea Brick
Numi's Aged Pu∙erh Tea Brick is a compressed bar of loose pu∙erh tea leaves. Unlike traditional teas that are oxidized for 8 hours, Pu∙erh undergoes a unique 60-day fermentation process resulting in a bold, earthy flavor with hints of malt. This style of pu-erh can be compressed into bricks and aged, like fine wine, for months, years or even decades.This increases its value and rich taste.
- Ingredients: Fair Labor Verified organic black pu-erh tea.
- Brewing Instructions: Each portion may be steeped 4 times. Break off 1 square portion and place in a 10 oz. teapot. Pu-erh should be rinsed before steeping to awaken the sleeping leaves: pour boiling water to fill the pot halfway, swirl for several seconds and pour out the water. Fill the teapot and place a lid on the top; steep 1st & 2nd pots: 2 minutes, 3rd &4th pots: 3-4 minutes.

What is Pu-erh?Pu-erh (pū-ĕr) is an ancient healing tea known for its medicinal properties and rich taste. Pu-erh’s history began over 2000 years ago when tea was transported along five “Tea Horse Roads”. The first and most traveled road began in the village of Pu Erh, in the majestic mountains of Yunnan, China. In order to maximize their load, merchants compressed the tea. After traveling across the country they were surprised to find that the tea tasted better and yielded more health benefits at journey’s end. |
Old-Growth Wild Tea TreesNumi’s organic pu-erh comes from 500-year-old, wild tea trees in Yunnan, China. The maturity of these trees yields a superior taste compared to younger bushes. It is said that the roots of the wild old tea trees bring forth potent life energy, known as Qi (Chi). These trees are communally owned by the residents of the local villages, ensuring a stable source of income for generations to come. The tea trees are grown in harmony with the primary indigenous forest, promoting biodiversity and forest conservation in the region. |
Product Description

When it comes to price, I think the price per ounce is unbeatable. I searched for a while and was unable to find any boxes of teabags that were priced any better.
Next, this bag has beautiful floral notes. You open the bag and it smells amazing. The leaves steep well. I think this might be the tastiest Jasmine Tea I’ve had. The bags come with directions on steeping - with guidance on time and quantity.
Great tea leaves for tea lovers. Excited to try the other teas they have available.
Nspire by Numi Rosy Chamomile Tea
This was my first time buying tea in bulk. I bought this tea because it sounded so yummy. I normally would NEVER pay this much, $39.99+, this was a one time splurge. So to say I was extremely disappointed is an under statement. The tea flavor left much to be desired, which could be personal preference. However, I was pouring some into a plastic baggie to share when I saw that half of what was filling the bag looked like saw dust mixed with a few dried flowers.
NUMI Moroccan Mint
I'm familiar with the Numi brand and thought I'd be getting a quality tea. When I first opened the bag the tea was crushed into such small pieces they leaked through both my infusers, you're going to need some organic tea bags for this tea. Secondly, when using the recommended amount it had barely any flavor, you have to use twice that amount. I jokingly told my husband I was probably drinking a mint mulch blend, it could still be called organic right! The next day I was filling some bags for quick grab & use, when I found myself picking out sticks. A real bummer, this tea was a huge disappointment and doesn't do much to uphold the quality of the Numi brand name.
UPDATE: I'm changing my rating on the Moroccan Mint for the simple fact that I've purchased other premium mint tea and so far this is the best tasting. I do hope future purchases have less dust and sticks.

months so far. The tea tastes delicious, light, very slightly minty. I often mix it with a small amount of fresh squeezed lemonade for an easy and refreshing Spearmint Tea Lemonade! Highly recommend purchasing this large bag of spearmint tea if you’ve been using it for hormonal acne - it’s definitely the best bang for your buck! Or if you just can’t get enough spearmint tea, this is a delicious option and I think I enjoy it more than the expensive organic spearmint tea bags I was getting at the grocery store! 10/10
