Let’s talk Bio-dynamic Farming

Let’s talk Bio-dynamic Farming. Initially developed in 1924 by Dr. Rudolf Steiner, it is a wholistic agricultural practice that considers the earth as a living being and believes in caring for the earth by not only being ‘chemical free’ (organic) but in working with the energies which create and maintain life. It treats soil fertility, plant and animal health as ecologically interrelated tasks and believes in the spiritual-ethical-ecological approach to agriculture, food production and nutrition.

Our teas come from the plantations in Darjeeling at the foothills of the Indian Himalayas which not only are organic but embrace the bio-dynamic principles of agriculture. That makes the taste so pure, fresh and refreshing!

Did you know, in the time of Aristotle, there was a belief that relationships exist between certain cosmic constellations and the various plant species.

SEASON’s GREETINGS from Maya of Australia: Organic Darjeeling Tea!

Tea & its aroma: Natural or Added?

#DYK: The agro-climatic conditions where the teas are grown often contribute to its distinctive aroma. There are three key types of ingredients used to add aroma to the teas – a. Natural (eg. rose petals);

b. Nature-identical (those that have similar molecular structure like the natural ingredients but are reproduced in the laboratory and are cheaper) and

c. Synthetic (often are low quality chemicals).

Our Maya of Australia®– Organic Darjeeling Teas are naturally aromatic with NO added scents or flavour but only the distinctive aroma bestowed by the pure Himalayan climate– just as nature intended…

Maya of Australia® is registered with the Tea Board of India

We are delighted to be registered with the Tea Board of India (Govt. of India) and are authorised to use the official “Darjeeling” Tea logo and the word “Darjeeling” on our products.

Tea and Karate has centuries-old connection. The Japanese martial art of ‘Karate’ is a combination of kara, meaning empty, and te, meaning hand. The suffix ‘-do’, meaning ‘the way’ is often added to it. karate-do, denotes karate as a total way of life that goes well beyond the self-defense applications. On the other hand, the famous Japanese tea ceremony is known as ‘Cha-do‘ (‘cha’ meaning tea) or the ‘way of tea’. It is the same ‘do’ that is referred to in ‘Karate-do’.

Cha-do has long been associated with the martial arts. Back in samurai times, the tea ritual was meant to provide concentrated form of interactions, on and off the battlefield, which gave them critical insight into life.

Did you know, today, Japan is one of the leading importers of Darjeeling tea which is enjoyed even by the members of its Royal Family.

Here’s to all Active & Health loving people – TEA CHEERS!!!

Welcome to Maya Tea World!

Maya of Australia TM (a brand of Australian company Aei4eiA Pty Ltd) sources pure, single origin, single estate, Organic Darjeeling Teas (Black and Green teas).

These teas are grown at an altitude of 3200 ft at the foothills of the Himalayas in Darjeeling, India. The unique agro-climatic condition of the region contributes to its distinctive flavour and aroma which cannot be replicated anywhere else in the world.

Maya of Australia have collaborated with the plantations to not only source the teas but also package it near the source and directly air freight from there to Australia, to preserve the freshness.

Darjeeling Black Teas are known worldwide as ‘Champagne of teas’ and our carefully chosen ‘not bitter in taste, aromatic’ Organic Darjeeling Green Tea is nature’s gift to nurture active & health-loving people.

Women, who form majority of the workforce in this tea producing ecosystem, play a significant role in the sustainability of the tea industry. This ethically sourced, carefully crafted tea is more of an art. The sight of a mother (a tea-picker) holding a ‘tea-leaf’ while at the same time carrying her child in her pouch is a sight- that is quite common. And that, in a way exemplifies the nature/nurture bond. Thus, through the ‘mother and child’ image on our products, we pay our respect to all those women working in the tea gardens while nurturing both their human child as well as the industry. It is in their nature to nurture and that help produce the best tea (both in terms of flavour and aroma) in the world.
