Barn Owl Tea - unique brews
BENJAMIN PRIEBE The Standard
UXBRIDGE: There's something brewing in Uxbridge, with the launch of The Barn Owl Tea Co. by a local husband and wife duo.
Ethan and Sara Zon, fresh from their official
launch at the Highlands of Durham Games, embarked on their largely
web-based endeavour to provide customers with affordable, fine,
loose-leaf teas.
The Zons, along with their 16-month-old daughter,
have a longstanding love of fine teas, and decided to turn their hobby
into a business venture, making their taste available to all, minus the
white gloves and fancy atitude.
"My wife's family are all tea-drinkers," said
Ethan. "In their house, tea is the crux of every meal and every
conversation - it goes nicely with my background in wine-tasting, we
both know how to appreciate an excellent cup of tea."
While they hope to grow into a storefront in the
future, the Zon family is offering their wares on-line at
www.BarnOwlTea.com, and is hoping to become known in the local
community, as they live in Uxbridge.
The site features more than 24 unique varieties of tea, hand picked and tasted by Ethan and Sara.
"We literally drank hundreds of cups of tea and
spent weeks finding the right suppliers, with the quality we wanted for
our customers," said Ethan.
Hoping to dispel the mysterious perception of
loose leaf tea, the couple has made easy to understand tasting and
brewing notes for each and every tea.
"We've got strong black teas for breakfast,
delicate green and white teas for serving cold, flavourful teas for
bartending or cooking - there's no limit to how people can use our tea,"
said Ethan.
