The tea farm is located near the LangCang river, in a forested area that has only recently been used for farming, so the soil is as rich and pure as the tea that grows from it. During his last visit to the tea farm, Davidson's co-owner, Kunall Patel, took this image of a villager chopping firewood nearby.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the soil in this tea farm is so young, farmers must physically catch pests themselves in order to protect the purity of the tea plants. The farmers are of course paid additionally for this task, and they have managed to control the population of pests in this way, rather than resort to using the pesticides that are prevalent in conventional tea farms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrganic white tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBrewing:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeat fresh, filtered water just short of the boiling point.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd 2 grams of tea to a infuser, or straight into an 8-oz. mug.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePour the heated water into the mug.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteep for 3-5 minutes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrain tea leaves, or take out the infuser.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSip and enjoy Davidson’s organic tea.\u003ci role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cbr role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Davidson's Organics","offers":[{"title":"16 oz.
