Farm to Shipment

Origin Traceability & Quality Assurance

Every lot NH Tea ships comes with a complete documentation chain — farm records, organic certificates, pesticide test reports, and batch harvest codes — giving importers everything needed for customs clearance and retail compliance.

Our Process

Three Layers of Traceability

From the tea garden to the export carton, every step is documented and verifiable.

🌿01

Farm-Level Records

Each lot is linked to a named estate with GPS coordinates, cultivar records, altitude data and harvest date — all available in the shipment dossier.

🔬02

Independent Lab Testing

Third-party labs run a 200+ pesticide residue panel and heavy-metal screen on every export batch. COA issued per lot and included with shipping documents.

📋03

Batch Code & COA

A unique harvest batch code is printed on every export carton. Scan the code to pull the matching farm record, lab report, and organic certificate in seconds.
