In the Know
Ginkgo biloba is a plant with an ancient legacy. Native to China, and also known as the maidenhair tree, ginkgo biloba has been found in fossils dating back 270 million years! This historically rich plant is frequently used in Traditional Medicine, as well as in cuisine, and today is popular as a tea known to deliver myriad benefits. Deep rooted, snow resistant, and averaging a height of from 66 to 115 feet, aged Gingko trees also boast a wide crown. In fact, in Germany and China, gingko biloba is the most commonly prescribed herbal medicine.
What Exactly is Ginkgo Biloba?
Reaching heights from 66 to 115 feet, with some in China boasting 160 feet, the large gingko tree digs its roots in deep, and enjoys life in all kinds of weather. As a wind-, snow-, and insect-resistant tree, the gingko has proven itself to be a long-living, hearty specimen.
Interesting Notes about Ginkgo Biloba
China is where the first use of ginkgo as a medicine is recorded, way back in the late 15th century. Fast forward thousands of years to 1965 Germany; this is when the western world registered ginkgo for medicinal use. Gingko biloba contains flavones, ascorbic acid, sterols, and catechins, among other elements.
What Does Ginkgo Biloba Taste Like?

Bleach-Free Tea Bags
Our tea bags may not be the whitest, but they ARE the safest because Buddha Teas ONLY uses bleach-free teas bags. For us, this is not a preference but a necessity. Tea bags that have been bleached contain harmful chemicals such as dioxin and epichlorohydrin. Dioxin is a highly toxic, chemical compound produced by some chemical processes such as bleaching paper. It falls into the category of a POP (persistent organic pollutant) which, as the name suggests, persists and refuses to breakdown in our bodies and the environment, potentially taking decades to detox. Epichlorohydrin (bleach) is also toxic and listed as a hazardous air pollutant (HAP). It has been classified by the EPA as a human carcinogen.
We believe that our customers should never have to choose between their health and their senses so we proudly offer bleach-free tea bags so that they can taste the purity of natural teas without the cost of harmful chemicals or additives.
