What is Steep & Seek?
Steep & Seek is The Leaf and Cup's discovery hub where you can explore premium loose leaf teas, wood-smoked coffees, herbs, seasonal releases, brewing tips, and educational articles designed to help you find your next favorite cup.
What makes your smoked coffee unique?
Our smoked coffees are crafted from premium 100% Arabica beans and cold-smoked over real hardwoods such as cherrywood, hickory, pecan, applewood, and oak. No artificial smoke flavorings are used.
Do you use artificial flavors?
Many of our smoked coffees develop their flavor naturally through real hardwood smoke. Flavored coffees clearly identify their ingredients and flavor profiles on each product page.
Where are The Leaf and Cup products made?
The Leaf and Cup proudly crafts and packages its products in Texas using carefully selected premium ingredients and small-batch production methods.
What brewing methods work best?
Our coffees perform beautifully in drip coffee makers, French press, pour-over, AeroPress, percolators, and espresso machines where appropriate. Loose leaf teas can be prepared with an infuser, teapot, or tea press.
Do you offer decaffeinated coffee?
Yes. We offer premium decaffeinated coffees, including selected smoked varieties, so you can enjoy full-bodied flavor with minimal caffeine.
Why choose loose leaf tea?
Loose leaf tea generally contains larger leaves than many bagged teas, allowing for fuller flavor, better aroma, and a richer brewing experience.
How should I store coffee and tea?
Store coffee and tea in a cool, dry place away from heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. Keep containers tightly sealed to preserve freshness and flavor.
