This tea is sure to please! Often described as the "mocha of tea", organically-grown buds and leaves offer a malty aroma, a slightly peppery, smooth taste and a mouth-filling, sweet finish. This classic black has long been enjoyed as a breakfast tea and it goes very well with food and will be enjoyed as a refreshing cup most anytime. It chills to a tasty iced tea as well!
You will note the leaves are large (we milled them minimally) to preserve the natural flavors and bring a richer, deeper flavor to the cup and to afford you multiple steeps! Sachets are made from biodegradable non-GMO corn silk.
These elegant sachets are perfect for enjoyment at home, at the office, while traveling or a relaxing cup anytime.

Black tea is a leaf that has been fully oxidized. This rigorous oxidization produces a tea of hearty rich flavors while reducing its astringency and bringing out a natural sweetness.
Flavors will range from bright, brisk, peppery, clean, and smoky to aromatic, bold, malty, nutty, spicy, and sweet. Blacks are known for long, delicately aromatic, and comforting aftertastes. Note, they are often enjoyed with milk or sweetener.
