About Paper & Tea

Just as in jazz, the art of tea blending fuses a wide variety of cultural influences, traditions, and modern interpretations into completely original compositions. The roots of this art lie in China. As early as the Chinese Song Dynasty, ingenious tea masters tried their hand at blends and flavoured varieties. They first used blossoms, and later also essential oils and spices, to refine the teas, or to support certain healing effects. Similar to jazz, tea and with it the art of blending embarked on a geographical and cultural journey around the world. This resulted in famous compositions such as Earl Grey, Genmaicha and Masala Chai. P & T Master Blends stand in this tradition. They are what their name implies: a blend of premium teas and all-natural ingredients created by master artisans. They are inspired by tradition and alongside creative freedom for reinterpretation, just like jazz. They celebrate diversity and tell individual stories.
