Variety Kit - Earl Grey Green Tea AND Peppermint Tea - 30 Sachets Each
You will notice that we always place quotation marks around the word “tea” when referring to our Peppermint “tea.” That is because, technically, mint “tea” is not a true tea. It is actually an infusion, and although most of us refer to it as an “herbal tea,” it is really not tea at all. Technically for something to be called “tea,” it must come from the Camellia sinensis plant. That plant is responsible for all the green, black, oolong and other varieties of tea. Beverages that are made by infusing other plants are more properly referred to as Herbal Infusions or Tisanes, but no matter what you call it, our Peppermint “Tea” is a refreshing treat.

Our Peppermint is cultivated in the moist, nutrient-rich soil of America’s Pacific Northwest where botanical experts claim the world’s finest organic Peppermint is found. We exclusively use premium whole-leaf Certified Organic Peppermint, which assures you the freshest flavor and complete peace of mind. Our Peppermint is certified free of pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and other added chemicals, flavors and sweeteners. It is unprocessed, so you enjoy all the pure, natural freshness of our exceptional organic Peppermint in each natural biodegradable tea sachet.

There are more than two dozen species of plants in the mint family. Peppermint, (Mentha piperita), is a hybrid combination of spearmint and water mint and is, without question, the most popular of all varieties of mint. Traditionally, Peppermint has been used not just for its uniquely fresh aroma and flavor, but also for its soothing proper ties, particularly for the digestive system. These calming proper ties have been recognized for thousands of years by diverse cultures around the world. Today, we find Peppermint in everything from breath mints and tooth paste to chewing gum, mouthwash and air fresheners. Peppermint is truly one of Mother Nature’s great gifts and our naturally caffeine-free Organic Peppermint makes it easy to see why it has been revered for centuries.

Originating almost 5,000 years ago in China, Green Tea is second only to water as the world’s most popular beverage. Interest in Green Tea’s health benefits continues to grow, but since most Americans don’t enjoy Green Tea’s flavor, we miss out on all its benefits. There is no better example of America’s taste in tea than Earl Grey tea, which is likely the world’s most popular flavored tea, but since it is made with Black Tea, it lacks the health benefits of Green Tea. That is where our uniquely delicious Earl Grey Green Tea is so different, since it provides the flavor of an exceptional Earl Grey Tea with all the extraordinary health benefits of the finest Green Tea.

Earl Grey has always been Muriel’s favorite tea, but she was very disappointed when she learned that because it was made with Black Tea, it lacked Green Tea’s health benefits. She then asked me if I could create an Earl Grey tea with all the health benefits of our popular Green Tea. The tea you hold in your hand is the result. Traditional Earl Grey is a blend of Black Tea with a small amount of bergamot oil which is derived from the rind of the bergamot orange, a fragrant citrus fruit from Italy. Our Organic Earl Grey Green Tea uses our Premium Green Tea in the place of Black Tea to create a new version of this traditional favorite. The result is a rich and flavorful tea with all the familiar notes of traditional Earl Grey tea, but with the added bonus of all the exceptional benefits of the world’s finest Green Tea.

There is no beverage with a longer history of traditional use than Green Tea. There is also no beverage with more science to support its healthy use than Green Tea. Tradition and science combine perfectly when it comes to the health benefits of regular consumption of Green Tea and our new Organic Earl Grey Green Tea provides a flavorful opportunity to embrace the health benefits of Green Tea. Research has shown that special compounds in Green Tea called Polyphenols deliver its benefits. EGCG (Epigallocatechin Gallate) is the most important of Green Tea’s Polyphenols and is the ongoing focus of important anti-aging research. Our Organic Earl Grey Green Tea delivers high levels of protective Polyphenols – exceeding 5% and with more than one-third being all-important EGCG. It is also perfectly balanced providing lower levels of caffeine than a weak cup of coffee or a cup of Black Tea.

We use only Single Region Premium Organic Green Tea from Fujian, China. This tea is well known for its mildness making it perfect for Americans. The capital of Fujian is Fuzhou — a city renowned for its Jasmine, making it the perfect home to China’s and our highest quality Jasmine Green Tea.

Our Organic Earl Grey Green Tea is a unique way to bring you the classic flavor of time-honored Earl Grey in the form of one of the healthiest and most celebrated beverages – Green Tea. It is mild and delicious – without a hint of bitterness. Each cup reminds us of a simpler time when tea was brewed with great devotion and enjoyed in complete tranquility.
