Mint Tea is a flavored black tea combining the cooling refreshment of mint with a smooth black tea base — a combination with deep roots across North African and Middle Eastern tea culture, where mint black tea (specifically gunpowder green with spearmint in the Moroccan tradition) is the quintessential expression of hospitality. Mint’s menthol compounds interact with black tea’s tannins to create a naturally refreshing, palate-cleansing experience.
The mint character in this blend is cooling and clean, balancing the warmth of the black tea base and creating a cup that works equally well hot in winter or iced in summer.
In the cup, Mint Tea brews a warm amber with a cool, refreshing mint aroma. The body is medium, the finish clean and cooling.
Use 2 grams per 8-ounce cup.
