Dallmayr Tea
Immerse yourself in our world of tea
Quality made by experts
Dallmayr is the only coffee roastery to also have decades of experience with tea. The company was already purchasing precious tea leaves from Russian traders at the end of the 19th century. At the start of the 1930s, a separate specialist department was set up for tea. Here, you can still have your own personal blend of tea weighed out to the gram.

Loose leaf varieties of the highest quality
Tea lovers will be delighted by the taste and the quality of our loose leaf varieties. Our black and green teas originate from the best tea gardens in the world – from the sunny southern slopes of the Himalayas to Japan. Subtly flavoured varieties, refreshing fruit cocktails and health teas based on a mysterious Ayurvedic recipe round off the product range perfectly.
The Dallmayr pyramid teabag product range
Enjoy tea in its most attractive form. Our transparent and flavour-neutral pyramid bags made from high-quality bioplastics provide sufficient space for whole tea leaves and petals to unfold. Perfect for a glass teacup of 270 ml.
Infusion bag - the classic
Infusion bags are the practical, fast alternative to loose tea. Various grading processes take place during the production of high-quality leaf teas. The finer leaf grades, called fannings, can be found in the tea bag. These differ from leaf or broken tea varieties solely in terms of their leaf size, not in terms of their quality.

“A good tea taster must train their senses for seven years.”
— Rudi Krapf, Head of Dallmayr’s Tea Department and a tea expert for more than 40 years
In order to find the best leaves from amongst the premium plants, our expert tastes his way through the tea gardens of the world – sometimes up to 300 cups. Tea tasting follows a standardised procedure throughout the world – whether it’s in a plantation in Darjeeling or in the Dallmayr tea manufactory in Munich...
Weigh out
According to an old English tradition, precisely 2.86 grams – the weight of an old English sixpence coin – are weighed out by hand for each sample.
Chinese tradition
It is said that Chinese tea masters were able to tell whether a cup of tea was made using water from near the river bank, from the middle of the river or from a well.
Infuse
Every tea sample is infused with 150 ml hot tap water in a standardised porcelain pot and covered with a lid. After precisely five minutes, the tea is poured into the sample cup.
Did you know?
Tea was discovered thousands of years earlier than coffee. One day, the wind blew a tea leaf into Emperor of China’s hot water. This was the birth of tea as a drink.
Look
While waiting for the tea to cool down to approximately 45 degrees for sampling, the Dallmayr experts check the colour and texture of the dry and brewed tea leaves.
Two leaves and a bud ...
Exquisite teas are always picked by hand, according to the rule “two leaves and a bud” – i.e. the two youngest leaves with the new shoot.
Smell
Tea only completely releases its aroma when it is brewed. Before the infusion is tasted, the damp, swollen tea leaves are tasted for their smell.
The aroma of the tea
The two youngest leaves initially have a neutral fragrance and are transformed into an aromatic tea right on the plantation through various production processes.
Taste
The tea is tasted using a standardised tasting spoon. Each Dallmayr tea taster has their own. Here, the rule of thumb is “slurp, smack, spit”.
Slurping is not only allowed, but extremely important: the tea is slurped from the spoon with as much oxygen as possible. Then the tea is washed around the tongue and the palate.
The oxygen inside the mouth plays an important role here, as it enables all the flavours to be brought out fully: bitter, sweet and various aromas, such as citrus, fruit, flowers or spices, which make the individual tea what it is.
Spit
Finally, the taster spits out the tea. As with coffee or wine tastings, spitting primarily has a practical purpose: the experts taste numerous samples, often several hundred cups a day. If they did not spit it out, they would consume too much caffeine.
Stimulation instead of agitation
In tea, the caffeine is bonded to the tannins and is only gradually released in the body. Therefore, tea stimulates without agitating.
