Our Cafe customers give feedback and we discontinue the ones that get poor ratings. We also look to improve our teas and will replace a standard tea, like Mango, with a higher quality blend from another supplier.
The teas are selected after evaluation in these six areas and then the scores are weighted to decide if they qualify for inclusion in our range:
