  • Tea: Rediscovering an Ancient Beverage in the 21St Century
    March 2013 US$39.00 SPECIAL REPORT Tea: Rediscovering an Ancient Beverage in the 21st Century As soda and energy drinks come under fire in the United States, specialty tea is poised to capture major market share, whether high-end organic loose leaf, ready-to-drink or the classic tea bag. Formulation-friendly with inherent health-boosting characteristics, tea is a classic beverage on the verge of atypical growth. by Brian R. Keating Tea: Rediscovering an Ancient Beverage in the 21st Century by Brian R. Keating fter 25 years of analyzing and reporting on the global tea industry, our team of beverage analysts can say with total confidence: 2013 is A going to be the year of “all things tea”—especially in North America. Specialty tea offerings are booming as a thirsty planet fully embraces the second most-popular beverage after water and the closest thing to a legitimate health panacea ever discovered. The current full-steam expansion for an eager tea industry—including retail products, foodservice offerings and even multi-unit retail outlets—is nothing short of staggering. In broad terms, specialty teas are the higher-end offerings made from longer leafs, organic teas and naturally flavored vs. conventional recipes and old-school black tea in a simple tea bag or can. The multi-decade germination and emergence of tea in North America has almost perfectly paralleled the patterns exhibited by the North American natural foods industry, which simmered with “what if” possibilities in the 1960s and ’70s and finally exploded in the 1980s. The rest is history still in the making.
