Paddington Teas

Welcome to Paddington Teas,

Our customers demand the best, hence the reason for selecting Paddington Teas to be our primary tea supplier.

Our range of teas include white, green, black, and oolong teas, as well as the hugely popular vita mate. Our online shop provides detailed descriptions of these products and their many health benefits.

There is no doubt that Australian tea drinkers are broadening their tea drinking tastes and I can only encourage you to experiment with our exquisite range. Our teas also make wonderful gifts for those special occasions.


Tea Grades and Storage

Tea Types and Grades: Stemming from the Camellia Sinensis plant, there are six main types of tea (Black, red, white, green, yellow and Oolong) of which black, green and oolong are the most well known and drunk.

These six types of tea are further sorted by origin ( i.e. Assam, Ceylon, Chinese, Japanese etc) and graded by their characteristics ranging from whole leaf grades (Flowery pekoe, orange pekoe, pekoe, pekoe souchong, and souchong) down to the broken leaf grades (Broken orange pekoe, broken pekoe, BOP fanning, fannings, and dust).

Tea storage: The best way to store tea is in an airtight container, away from sunlight, in a cool location. Improperly stored tea will absorb moisture and flavours from its environment, resulting in a duller weak tasting tea.

Although tea can be stored for up to 1-2 years in optimal condition (traditional tea longer than herbal and fruit tea), we recommend consumption within six months after purchase.
