Tasting Notes
Soothing green tea and aromatic, refreshing mint combine to result in a subtle green tea flavor mingled with a dominant, cooling menthol profile. Traditionally taken with lots of added sugar to result in a sweet, minty beverage.

The Backstory
Moroccan Mint tea is a classic beverage known around the world. It speaks to a style of tea - gunpowder green mixed with soothing mint - that is familiar to tea lovers everywhere. We've kicked ip up a notch, of course.
Our Moroccan mint starts with a Formosa Gunpowder (so called because it is rolled in tight, little balls that resemble gunpowder) that is actually a fired oolong. Traditionally this blend uses Egyptian mint, but instead we've substituted a more mentholated herb from the Pacific Northwest US, so ours has a little more powerful (and pleasant) mint flavor. The tea, however, still shows through.
