We are pleased to announce their selection as a Silver
Finalist in the 38th Annual sofi™ awards in the category of hot beverage. The awards, held by the
National Association for the Specialty Food Trade (NASFT), are considered the industry’s highest
honor. Silver Finalists are evaluated on a range of attributes, including taste, quality, ingredients,
innovation and packaging.
Our Goodnight Kiss Fair Trade organic tea blend was one of 125 Silver Finalists
selected by a national panel of specialty food experts from 1,570 contenders across 31 Awards categories.
Gold Winners will be selected from the Silver Finalist nominees at the NASFT’s Summer Fancy Food
Show in New York held June 27-29, 2010. Executive chef Dan Barber of Blue Hill Restaurant, a leader
in the artisanal food movement, will host the awards, in what is considered the specialty food industry’s
biggest night of the year. 

PARTNERS TEA CO.’s Goodnight Kiss is comprised of the warm and soothing flavors of cacao, mint and
Vanilla Rooibos.

I will be in attendance, along with 3 of my best girlfriends and biggest supporters-- stop by our booth at the show for a taste of our teas and to wish us luck!

This recognition is a triumph for our small, woman-owned and financed company
and for other Fair Trade products.  Our pure teas are hand-picked on small
farms from Sri Lanka to South Africa and with our Fair Trade practices we bring higher quality hand-
blended teas to market that are devoted to changing the quality of life for both those who drink them
and those who harvest them.
