Coffee leaf tea…
One of the busiest booths at the show was that of Vancouver based start-up Wize Monkey, which is preparing to launch an industry first - coffee leaf tea - this summer. The company will supply bulk quantities of loose leaf coffee-leaf-tea to tea chains and brands, but is also launching its own retail products under the Wize Monkey brand (first there are tea bags, with loose leaf and ready-to drink beverages likely to follow).
Earthy, slightly sweet, and not as bitter as regular green or black tea, it is very low in tannins and lower in caffeine than black tea, said CEO Max Rivest.
