A far more drinkable way to have moringa than the plain leaf: here a bright sencha-style green does the heavy lifting and the moringa sits underneath as a mild, earthy undercurrent rather than the whole show, so it tastes clean and fresh instead of flat and grassy. Brew it around 80 degrees and it stays vegetal, not astringent. There is real green tea, so caffeine, a daytime cup. Dalgety is a genuine Jamaican-British grower-direct operation, which is a real point of difference, not packaging; I make no health claims, but as a cup this is the moringa to choose.
Dalgety Moringa with Green Tea is a green tea and moringa blend in 18 tea bags, 40g pack. The brew pours a clear golden green with grassy top notes from the Chinese green tea base and an earthy undercurrent from the dried moringa leaves. Naturally low calorie, contains caffeine from the green tea (lower than coffee, present nonetheless).
Dalgety is a Jamaican British family business founded by Dr Henry Lowe, a Jamaican scientist and pharmacologist researching Caribbean herbal traditions. The company works directly with Jamaican farmers for the moringa and other Caribbean botanicals, ensuring authentic provenance and fair payment to growers in the West Indies. The brand sits in the functional tea tier above mass market supermarket green tea.
The moringa leaves come from selected tropical growing regions. Moringa oleifera is widely known as the miracle tree for its dense nutritional profile. The leaf carries antioxidants, vitamins and minerals naturally, and pairs well with green tea because the grassy top notes complement the moringa base rather than compete with it. The tea-bag format keeps preparation straightforward.
Brew at 80-90°C for 2-5 minutes. Let the kettle rest 60 seconds after boiling so the temperature drops below boiling and the green tea catechins don't extract too aggressively. Best drunk plain to taste the natural grassy and earthy notes, though a slice of fresh lemon or ginger brightens the cup. Excellent as a cold brew or iced version through warm weather.
Caffeine: decaffeinated or low-caffeine; a product-specific milligram figure is not claimed.
Dalgety Moringa with Green Tea is a green tea and moringa blend in 18 tea bags. The base combines Chinese sencha style green tea leaves with dried moringa leaves sourced from selected tropical growing regions. Contains naturally occurring caffeine from the green tea.
Dalgety is the Jamaican British family business founded by Dr Henry Lowe, a scientist and pharmacologist who spent decades researching traditional Caribbean herbal uses. The brand specialises in botanicals that mainstream UK retail tends to ignore: moringa, soursop, traditional Caribbean and African herbs. Real ingredients, real provenance, no synthetic flavourings.
The taste profile
Four sensory dimensions:
- Grassy freshness, 5/5. Clean and bright green tea notes provide an uplifting top layer; the sencha style base reads vegetal rather than astringent when brewed at 80°C.
- Earthy smoothness, 4/5. The moringa leaf provides a grounded, mild undercurrent that balances the green tea without dominating.
- Refreshing finish, 4/5. Soft, clean palate feel that avoids the excessive astringency cheaper green teas slide into.
- Liquor clarity, 3/5. A light, invigorating golden green appearance in the cup; reads bright rather than murky.
Teas.co.uk Curator Rating: 4.7/5, our expert verdict from the curators at Teas.co.uk.
The story behind Dalgety
Dalgety Herbal Teas is a Jamaican British family business founded by Dr Henry Lowe, a Jamaican scientist and pharmacologist who has spent decades researching the traditional uses of Caribbean herbs. The company works directly with Jamaican farmers to source moringa, soursop and other traditional Caribbean botanicals, ensuring authentic provenance and fair payment to growers in the West Indies.
The Planet Friendly everyday ritual
Dalgety's sustainability work is built around direct relationships with growers:
- 100% pure formulation. Only natural leaves, green tea and moringa, with no hidden flavourings or industrial additives.
- Packaging guidance. Packaging formats vary; follow the current pack and local disposal guidance.
- Packaging: Follow the current UK pack and local-authority guidance; components can require different disposal routes.
- Clean hydration credentials. Naturally very low in calories, fat and salt, a functional alternative to sugary drinks.
The perfect serve
- Temperature. 80-90°C. Let the kettle rest 60 seconds after boiling. Full boil water scorches the green tea leaves and turns the cup astringent.
- Steep. 2-5 minutes depending on how robust you prefer the earthy moringa profile. Shorter for a lighter cup, longer to draw out the moringa minerals.
- Service. Drink plain to taste the natural grassy and earthy notes. A slice of lemon brightens the cup; a slice of fresh ginger adds warmth.
- Iced moringa. Brew 2 bags double strength in 150ml for 5 minutes, cool, pour over ice. Add a slice of fresh ginger for the morning lift.
Best paired with
- Light salads: the grassy notes complement leafy greens, the moringa earthiness adds depth.
- Grain bowls or buddha bowls: functional drink to a functional plate; balances the umami without overpowering it.
- Avocado on toast: classic morning pairing; the green tea cleans the palate between bites.
- Storage: keep the carton sealed in a cool, dry place. Store away from coffee and strongly spiced products.
How Does Dalgety Moringa with Green Tea Compare to
- Pukka Supreme Green: Pukka is the British organic herbal premium tier. Dalgety provides comparable build quality at a lower per cup price, with Caribbean botanical specialty Pukka doesn't carry. Different brand polish; similar leaf integrity.
- Clipper Green: Clipper sits in the mass market premium tier (organic certified, paper bags). Dalgety adds moringa as a functional ingredient. Choose Clipper for plain organic green, Dalgety for the moringa enhanced version.
- Twinings Pure Green: Twinings is the British supermarket premium baseline at a similar shelf position. Dalgety differentiates on the direct from Jamaica sourcing story and the moringa botanical Twinings doesn't blend in.
