Premium Black Tea is a natural ally for psychophysical well-being thanks to its richness in theaflavins and thearubigins, powerful antioxidants that protect the cardiovascular system and counteract cellular ageing.

Thanks to the synergy between caffeine and L-theanine, it provides a steady release of energy that improves concentration without causing agitation. Its oxidised nature also makes it gentler on the stomach compared to green tea, supporting digestion and metabolism after meals.
