About Tea Total
Tea Total has a serious approach to the tea leaf. Their range is chock fullof quality loose leaf teas that you’ll find in boutique hotels, cafes, heathspas and gourmet food stores. The founder, Anna Salek, aka The Tea Lady, openedthe first Tea Total in Auckland in 1995. There was no precendent for a tea shopin 1995 and people assumed she was opening a tea room, something akin to theold New Zealand Railways cafes. Since then, Tea Total has gone from strength tostrength. The first shop was a small store in Mission Bay where the BerkleyCinema sits, selling dry tea and light refreshments. This introduced Aucklandersto the concept of a tea shop but Anna soon realised she needed a bigger storethat was also a cafe, to cater for both tea drinkers, coffee drinkers and thehungry. When the cinema complex was redeveloped Tea Total moved to slightlylarger premises in Mt Eden. This shop was successful and become well knownthroughout New Zealand. This prompted Anna to seek larger premises onAuckland's North Shore to create the store that now exists in Kitchener Road.Tea Total Cafe is no longer owned by Anna, but still offers the full range ofTea Total teas. From humble beginnings in a Sydney market stall to a small shopwith 63 flavours and a broom closet storage to a 3,000ft warehouse housing150 varieties.Tea Total not only started the tea revolution in New Zealand,they've been at the forefront ever since.

A note on Fair Trade and chemicals from Tea Total: “While we do notadvertise our products as Fair Trade, we buy our breakfast blends and sometraditional black and green teas direct from the tea estates in India, Japan andSri Lanka. There are no middle men involved and while we pay what for us is agood price, it is far in excess of the amount they would receive from giantssuch as Liptons or Twinings. Workers are unionised, they work eight hour days,five days per week, receive free housing, electricity, schooling and medicalclinics. Because of these conditions, positions are much sought after and oftenhanded down within families. We don’t have the Fair Trade label but I canpersonally guarantee the teas above are more than fairly traded.Our blended teas(fruit infusions, herbal teas and Earl Greys) are sourced in Europe where teas,once bought directly from the grower, are blended with finest qualityflavourings, fruits and herbs. All these products are tested by law in Germanlaboratories for 203 chemicals and pesticides. This doesn’t make for a cheapproduct, but does ensure a level of quality that is without equal.”
