Fair
Trade Tea... leaves
a better taste in your mouth.
Since
1978, the World Development Tea Co-operative
has been importing TradeWinds tea that is blended,
packed and shipped by Sri Lankans. Best known
is the Superior Blend tea in the distinctive
reed baskets that are woven by 2,500 village
women. The women are shareholders in the export
company and receive housing loans and help
with schooling for their children.
In
contrast, transnational corporations buy bulk
tea cheaply at auction and ship it to their
overseas plants for blending, packing and distribution.
If Sri Lanka could export all its tea in packaged
form, it would more than double its income
from tea. This would dwarf all the foreign
aid money it receives. That's why NI is
joining with the Tea Co-op in this campaign
for self-reliance through fair trade.
And
the Superior Blend...
Superior Blend is a high quality tea with a finer
flavour than is usually found in supermarket tea. The leaf tea
comes in a unique hand-made reed basket.
