Yogi Tea® & Uncle Lee's® Tea
Teeccino is proud to introduce you to two fine lines of teas, Yogi Tea and Uncle Lee’s Tea. Both these companies have an extensive product line of teas. Caroline MacDougall has created a variety of flavorful teas for these two companies and we are pleased to offer these teas in our product catalog.
Golden Temple, the company that markets Yogi Teas, was founded by Yogi Bhajan, who came from India to teach yoga and a spiritual lifestyle to Westerners. For more about their philosophy and products, please visit
www.goldentemple.com. Yogi Teas are spice based teas that reflect the ayurvedic principles of restoring a healthy balance and equilibrium to promote a long life with optimum health. Spices gently stimulate the body’s organs and glands to enhance digestion and elimination.
Caroline first began working with Yogi Tea in the early 1980’s to help convert their loose leaf spice tea to tea bags while still maintaining their strong spice profile. The group of teas offered here have been developed for Yogi Tea by Caroline over the last few years to give Yogi Tea a variety of delicious and flavorful spice teas.
Uncle Lee's Tea began as the U.S. factory for the Ten Ren Group, for the purpose of manufacturing teas for Ten Ren's North American distribution. Ten Ren, one of the biggest and best known tea manufacturers in Taiwan, has specialized in the production of teas, tea snacks and tea accessories for over five generations. Uncle Lee's Tea is a subsidiary of the Ten Ren Tea Group

In 1988, the Southern California based company made the decision to become a full scale, independently labeled tea producer, focusing completely on domestic and international health food and mass market sales. For more information about Uncle Lee’s teas, please visit
www.unclelee.com.
Uncle Lee’s Tea is best known for its high quality green teas and diet teas. When they decided to produce a line of caffeine free chais based on rooibos, the red tea, they asked Caroline to develop the chais using only organically grown herbs and spices. She also developed a green tea chai that is not offered on this site because it contains caffeine. Several more teas she has developed for Uncle Lee’s Tea should be launched in 2003.
Other teas by both Yogi Tea and Uncle Lee’s Tea can be found on the shelves of many health food stores and mass market grocery stores in both the United States and Canada, as well as overseas.
