Valentine Blend
This luscious black tea fills the air with the aroma of chocolate as it steeps, thanks to the addition of cacao nibs. Tart raspberry and pomegranate balance its sweetness, creating a well-rounded and enjoyable cup. It’s great for Valentine’s Day, but we trust that you’ll enjoy steeping it throughout the year.

Sticky Rice Tuo Cha
These mini tea cakes are infused with an herb called Nuo Mi Xiang, imparting the flavor of roasted rice into this pu’erh. We love pu’erh for a healthy caffeine kick, as well as after a heavy meal to help with digestion, and this one is delightfully smooth, herbaceous, and savory.
Enjoy it steeped many times over.
Ingredients: Pu-erh tea.
Origin: Yunnan, China.
Caffeine: MED
Black Dragon Pearls
Multiple Award-Winning Tea
These dark tea leaves have been painstakingly hand-rolled into perfect pearls, slowly unfurling as they steep into a honeyed hue.

Ingredients: Black tea.
Origin: Yunnan, China
Caffeine: HIGH
Hibiscus Berry
A caffeine-free blend of floral and fruity notes with the tartness of hibiscus and elderberries to balance its sweetness, this herbal infusion lusciously quenches the palate.
Rosehips and essential orange oil complement the piquancy of tangy current and crisp apple.
Have it hot, or serve it over ice for a sugar-free fruit punch.
Ingredients: Rosehips, hibiscus flowers, currants, apples, elderberries, natural blueberry flavor, essential orange oil, natural mango flavor.
Origin: Multiple Origin Blend

Gong Fu Black
Harvested in the spring in the WuYi Mountains, this elegant black tea is a great choice for first thing in the morning, or for any time of day when your mind needs refreshing. Its initial taste is soft and sweet, with a cloying pungency sneaking up in its finish.
We love its fruity liveliness, with the richness of molasses and caramel to round out its body.
Enjoy this one over several steeps, noting its different complexities each time.
Ingredients: Black tea.
Origin: Fujian, China
Caffeine: MED-HIGH
Cinnamon Orange Red
This herbal and caffeine-free South African honeybush blend is similar to a rooibos but sweeter with a fuller mouth feel.
Cinnamon Orange Red brilliantly offsets its natural sweetness with the zest of orange peel and cinnamon spiciness. The bonus is the gorgeous smell that wafts through the house while it brews.
Ingredients: Honeybush, cinnamon, orange peels, natural flavoring.
Origin: Multiple origin blend.
Caffeine: CAFFEINE-FREE
Nepali Breakfast
This breakfast tea is a truly unique and exotic way to start the day. Steeping to a deep ruby red hue due to the addition of CTC leaves, it also sings with the bright and complex flavors of Orthodox tea.
What really makes it a standout is its gorgeous layer of masala spice mix, leaving the palate awakened with notes of clove, cinnamon, ginger, and black pepper.
Try it with some warm milk, or as a sweet treat, a touch of sugar.
Ingredients: Black tea, cinnamon, clove, ginger, black pepper.
Origin: Eastern Nepal
Caffeine: HIGH
Jade Cloud
This highly unique green tea is a blend of three different styles- roasted, baked, and steamed. The combination of these styles creates a lively but beautifully smooth everyday tea.
Savory as well as sweetly floral, it finishes to a toasted nuttiness. Be sure not to steep it over the suggested time to preserve its delicate complexities.
Ingredients: Green tea.
Origin: Fujian, China
Caffeine: LOW-MED
Ceylon Orange Pekoe
This beautiful black tea is grown in the fresh mountain air, brilliant sunshine and abundant rainfalls of the southern Sri Lanka.
It has a strong, fresh black tea aroma and brews a full-bodied cup. We love its classic and bold personality with an elegant smoothness that lingers on the palate.
An outstanding orange pekoe that is at once traditional and refreshingly modern.

This seemingly simple blend of peppermint, cardamom, and licorice root combine to form a deep and uplifting complexity to refresh your spirits.
Savor the sweet notes of basil with a slight hint of clove as you relax and digest after a meal, or as an uncaffeinated night cap to settle the body for sleep.
If you think you don't like caffeine-free teas, mystic mint may change your tune.
