Greenfield tea is the name of one of the most common tea drinks that can be found on the shelves of our stores. "Greenfield" - tea, the assortment of which is very wide, the price is reasonable, and the taste is excellent. But few of the lovers of this delicious drink know who produces it, and how many years it has been pleasing its fans.
Tea maker
To the patriotic pride for our country, we can add the fact that this wonderful drink is produced by a Russian company called "Orimi Trade" from St. Petersburg. On August 10, 2003, this firm registered Grienfield Tea Ltd in London. After a short period of time, this product, produced as if by a British company, appeared on the shelves of our stores. The name "Greenfield", the tea, the assortment - nothing seems to raise any doubts that its manufacturer is a foreign company.
But no. Tea is entirely Russian, although it is legally produced in English.company. Manufacturers are willing to go to great lengths to win the hearts of customers, and in this case it was a well-planned marketing ploy.
Why mislead customers?
Indeed, wouldn't it be easier not to get involved in such a complicated procedure as registering a foreign company, but to produce tea under your own name? Not really. The fact is that Russian consumers do not really trust the goods that are produced in our country, unfortunately. Even the name itself, written in non-Cyrillic letters, is more attractive from all points of view. In addition, the Orimi Trade company decided to conquer the premium or above-average class segment, continuing to maintain the English style in everything: the Greenfield brand, tea, assortment, packaging, advertising, which is very restrained and concise. All in the best traditions of England. And we, Russian buyers, do not even suspect that we have become victims of a smart marketing move that so successfully promoted Greenfield tea to the Russian market.
Tea - assortment
This drink has a fairly extensive range that can satisfy the needs of even the most fastidious connoisseur of tea. In addition, the price range of this brand makes it affordable for everyone and will not scare anyone away, as is often the case with other elite varieties.
"Greenfield" - tea, the assortment of which will appeal to everyone and everyone, brings to the attention of buyers a collection of different teas. Among them are green and black teas familiar and close to Russians, andalso herbal or fruit. In addition, there are also those collections that seem quite exotic. These are white teas and teas of the Highland Oolong collection. Isn't the title very original?
As for the origin of the raw materials used to make this or that drink, everything is very individual here. Tea can be Chinese, Indian, Ceylon and even Kenyan.
Black tea
As you know, black tea is tea that has been fully fermented for a sufficiently long period, which is why it acquires a rich color and taste, devoid of bitterness. This tea is the most popular both in Europe and in Russia.
One of the best black teas supplied to the Russian market is "Greenfield" tea, the assortment in bags and in bulk of this drink is very wide. For example, "Classical Breakfast" - Indian, with invigorating properties - is the perfect choice for a morning drink. And "Golden Ceilon", originally from Sri Lanka, has a delicate aroma and unsurpassed taste.
For lovers of sophistication, Greenfield has prepared a drink with the aroma of bergamot Earl Gray Fantasy, which combines excellent Ceylon tea and bergamot and citrus zest. Greenfield Fine Darjeeling tea - Indian tea, harvested from highland plantations, has a light nutmeg flavor and floral aroma. Kenyan Sunrise - Kenyan, not quite familiar to oursfellow citizens, but no less tasty and fragrant. And Chinese tea Noble Pu-erh has a tart sweetish taste that pleasantly envelops from the inside. His compatriot Lapsang Souchong is a real "smoked" tea, which is smoked over burning pine branches, which is why it acquires an outstanding aroma.
Green tea
Green tea is a tea drink that has undergone minimal fermentation, which is why it has retained its rather pale color and pronounced bitter taste. Such tea is not for everyone, but it is incredibly useful and is downright a storehouse of vitamins and a healer for many diseases.
Greenfield's green tea collections are not as numerous as their predecessors, the black tea drinks collections, and consist of only three items produced as Greenfield green tea. Although the assortment is not so rich, there are not so many lovers of green tea either.
Among them is Flying Dragon green tea. It is collected on plantations in China, has a yellowish color and a very rich floral taste. The next collection is Jasmin Dream, again Chinese, with an incomparable jasmine scent. And completes the collection of Japanese Sencha - a rather rare Japanese drink, but aged in the spirit of all Japanese tea traditions.
Fruit and herbal tea
This collection is the most extensive and also the most loved by customers. It is she who is best known to those who buy Greenfield tea. Assortment inbags (and this collection is available only in bags) is very diverse and attractive. Among the teas of the fruit collection, the following names can be distinguished: Camomile Meadow - chamomile, Mango Delight - mango flavor, Festival Grapes - a mixture of apple, hibiscus and rosehip, Lemon Sparkl - lemon, Summer Bouquet - with raspberry, rosehip and hibiscus aroma. In addition to these types of teas, Christmas Mystery - with spices, Vanilla Wave, which also has spices and apricot flavors, and Easter Cheer, which has vanilla, lemon, mint and verbena flavors, are very fond of customers.
Greenfield fruit tea in pyramids (its assortment is simply amazing) will reach the heart of any person who is not indifferent to this product!
Exotic collections
Exotic is always tempting and attractive, which is why the producers of the Greenfield brand also did not bypass it. White tea is tea that has undergone weak fermentation, which is why it comes out very pale, almost white. Its aroma and taste are very subtle, so only a connoisseur of tea will be able to recognize them. Chinese white tea "Greenfield", the assortment (photo below) is small, because its taste is not for everybody.
The same goes for "Highland Oolong", which is only half fermented, which is why it has an atypical taste and aroma. These drinks are not standard, but many people, having tasted them for the first time, become fans of this tea.
Conclusion
Despite the manufacturer's initial deception,associated with the name of the brand, this drink is still one of the best on the Russian market both in terms of quality and pricing policy. Therefore, many people fell in love with this supposedly "overseas" tea "Greenfield". Assortment, gift packaging - just an amateur's dream! Everything is beyond praise. The gift box combines almost all Greenfield collections and contains as many as 120 bags of wonderful fragrances! A wonderful gift for family and friends who will be very grateful spending their evenings over a cup of this wonderful drink.
Of the disadvantages of Greenfield tea, one can single out only the presence of artificial flavors in some fruit brands. Nevertheless, it is packaged very beautifully and tastefully, which invariably improves the standard of living and gives a good mood. Drinking a mug of Greenfield tea, you involuntarily come across something fabulous and magical, and this, you see, is worth a lot!
