Our Commitment to Tea Quality Assurance
GMP & Food Safety Compliance
Royal New York operates under “Good Manufacturing Practices” (GMP), ensuring that our handling, storage, and blending processes meet strict food safety requirements. In order to verify that our procedures align with regulatory and industry best practices, we undergo yearly GMP audits. These audits ensure cleanliness, traceability, and overall operational integrity so we can give our customers confidence in our products.
Certificates of Analysis
Since quality assurance starts at the source, we require Certificates of Analysis (COAs) from all of our producers. These documents confirm that our teas, herbs, and spices meet our standards and are free from any harmful contaminants before they even reach our facility.
Organic & Kosher Certifications
We are also proud to offer organic certified and Kosher certified teas, supporting our customers who require these certifications for their brands. Our certifications are maintained through yearly inspections and documentation, ensuring ongoing compliance. This allows our partners to confidently meet consumer demand for responsibly sourced teas.
In-House Tea Quality Control
Every new arrival at our tea warehouse undergoes a thorough quality assurance review. This includes, but is not limited to, visual inspection, aroma evaluation, and taste assessment. Additionally, our traders cup each new arrival to make sure it meets our standards. We also do this with our freshly made blends to ensure consistency across every batch.
Final Thoughts
Quality assurance isn’t just a process at Royal Tea New York—it’s a promise. From GMP audits to certified products and hands-on QA for every new arrival, we do our due diligence in delivering teas that meet your expectations, batch after batch. However, tea quality assurance doesn’t end with us. Once the tea is in your hands, it’s important to store it properly and label it correctly so your consumers understand the quality of the product they’re receiving, just like we do for you!
