Outside TilliT's checks1 claim
These are marketing or nutrition-label descriptions rather than independently certified claims, so they aren't something TilliT verifies.
- What is this?
No preservatives / No artificial additives
On the page: “Easy to prepare as a loose-leaf tea No artificial ingredients or preservatives Share a mindful moment”
What it means: A claim about what the product does not contain.
Why TilliT doesn't verify it: "No preservatives / additives" claims are label claims regulated by the FDA, not third-party certified.
How to check it yourself: Read the full ingredient list.
TilliT also looked for gluten-free, allergen-free, non-gmo, fair trade claims. None appear on this product's page, so there was nothing to verify.

Supply chain & sourcing
Who makes and moves this product, and where it comes from, from public sources only. It's background context, not evidence for or against any badge claim.
- The seller's own informationProduct page labelling text
The product's own labelling states a country of origin of 'Japan by our third-generation a'. Origin statements are regulated on-label claims, not third-party certifications.
“Organic Plant-based Combines fresh sencha with rich ceremonial matcha Made in Japan by our third-generation artisan producer Easy to prepare as a loose-leaf tea No artificial ingredients or preservatives Share a mindful moment.”
What this means: This is the seller's own statement about where the product comes from. It is useful context, but it has not been independently checked.
Open source - The seller's own informationProduct page structured data (Schema.org)
The product page's own Schema.org markup names the manufacturer as 'Clearspring'.
What this means: This is the seller's own statement about where the product comes from. It is useful context, but it has not been independently checked.
Open source - The seller's own informationBrand sourcing / ingredients page
The brand publishes a page about its own suppliers / sourcing. This is the company's own account of its supply chain — worth reading, but not an independently verified supplier list.
What this means: This is the seller's own statement about where the product comes from. It is useful context, but it has not been independently checked.
Open source - Community database (not audited)Open Food Facts
Open Food Facts (a free, community-maintained product database — not a certifier or official registry) records, for one product listed under the brand 'Clearspring' (not matched by name to the assessed product — other products from this brand may differ): ingredient origin "Belgium".
What this means: A community-maintained product database (anyone can edit it, and it is not audited) lists sourcing or origin details for this product. TilliT treats it as a lead worth showing, not as proof.
Open source - Government-hosted recordGLEIF (Global LEI Foundation)
A legal entity with a matching name, 'CLEARSPRING LIMITED', is registered in the Global Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) system, headquartered in LONDON, GB (status: ACTIVE).
What this means: A registered legal entity with this name exists, and its record shows where it is based. TilliT matched it by name only, so compare its location with the product's own label before treating it as the company behind this product. It is not a check of any badge claim.
Open source - Government-hosted recordUK Food Hygiene Rating Scheme (FSA)
A UK Food Hygiene Rating Scheme inspection for a business named 'Clearspring' in Acton recorded a rating of 5/5 on 2025-09-03.
What this means: A UK food-safety inspection rating for premises tied to this brand. It reflects kitchen and food-handling hygiene, not whether the product is organic, gluten-free or anything else a badge covers.
Open source - Government-hosted recordEPA ECHO (facility compliance history)
US EPA facilities whose registered name matches 'Clearspring Ltd' have 6 record(s) in the EPA's Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) database, including 1 inspection(s).
What this means: The manufacturer's facilities show up in the US EPA's environmental compliance database, with an inspection on record. Inspections are routine and are not enforcement actions; this is general company background and does not bear on any badge claim.
