Dr. Stuart’s herbal teas now available to on-trade
Herbal tea specialist Dr. Stuart’s has branched out into the on-trade, making its range available to restaurants, pubs and hotels for the first time.
The range of herbal teas created by Dr. Malcolm Stuart are made using ‘active botanicals’, herbs from the most prized part of the plant, which release higher levels of essential oils, flavour and aroma.
Dr. Stuart’s also claims to be the only tea-maker in the world that uses medicinal grade herbs, targeting their range to meet ‘consumers’ specific health concerns’ with such tea flavours as Slim Plus, Throat Relief, Liver Detox, Tranquillity, Skin Purify, and Winter Ease. Also available from Dr. Stuart’s are more familiar flavours such as Peppermint, Chamomile, Cranberry & Raspberry, and Apple and Ginger.
Keith Garden, managing director of Only Natural Products, creators of the teas, said he was ‘thrilled’ the Dr. Stuart’s range was arriving on the on-trade market. “The move has been driven both by consumers who want to continue to enjoy the health benefits of drinking such high quality herbal teas outside the home, and by foodservice outlets who have been telling us they want to offer their increasingly sophisticated consumer a new league of herbal tea.”
Also available in the range are the Ready To Drink Functional Teas, available in Detox, Echinacea & Cherry and Skin Purify flavours, perfect for the summer months when iced and cold drinks invariably become more popular.
