Amostras
A sample request needs three things: the destination, the grade code or the cup you are matching, and the quantity you expect to buy. We send dry leaf with its specification sheet — grade, origin, moisture, the residue standard it will be tested against — and cup it with you if useful. Sample terms and dispatch time are stated when the request is confirmed. Once approved, the sample is sealed, retained and becomes the reference for the contract.
| Item | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Destino | Sets the residue standard and the label language |
| Grade code or reference cup | Decides whether we sample a grade or build a match |
| Expected quantity | Decides which lots are realistic to sample from |
| Bulk or retail packing | Changes HS subheading and what the sample should show |
| Organic required? | Organic availability and certificate scope are confirmed at quotation |
Service
What does not get sampled on demand?
Organic. Organic samples come only from a lot under a current certificate, with body and scope confirmed in the quotation. A supplier who can send organic samples of any grade on any lead time is describing paperwork, not a programme.
Frequentemente perguntado
Are samples free?
Sample terms are stated when the request is confirmed and depend on the grade and destination. Send the three items — destination, grade or cup, quantity — and the terms come back with the specification.
What happens to the approved sample?
It is sealed and retained for the life of the contract; where repeat-lot matching is contracted, later lots are cupped against it before release.
O que incluir em um pedido de amostra de chá?
Informe destino, tipo de chá, grau ou bebida-alvo, quantidade estimada do pedido, embalagem e requisitos de resíduos, ensaios ou certificação. Explique qual decisão a amostra deve apoiar. Isso ajuda o fornecedor a escolher um lote relevante e declarar termos de amostra, courier e cotação sem fingir que uma amostra genérica representa todos os graus.
A aprovação da amostra garante que todos os embarques serão iguais?
Não. Uma amostra aprovada é referência, não garantia automática para cada embarque. A repetibilidade depende da especificação escrita, controles de safra e mistura, referência retida, método de amostragem e verificações de liberação. Quando a correspondência for contratada, cada lote deve ser provado ou testado antes da liberação e as diferenças documentadas.
Can I get samples of white tea?
Yes, as for any line: name the grade — Bai Hao Yin Zhen, Bai Mu Dan, Gong Mei or Shou Mei — or the cup you want to match, the destination and the expected quantity. The sample terms, including any tea cost and courier charge, are stated when the request is confirmed.
Who pays for tea samples and shipping?
It is agreed per request. The tea and the courier are separate costs, and courier charges to some destinations can exceed the value of the tea. The confirmation states both before anything is sent.
