Seasonal Teas of Origin

PREMIUM MINT TEAS & ORGANIC HERBAL BLENDS
Gray & Seddon's Burgundy Mint Tea A premium blend of mint and black tea
MINT TEA is a blend of a black or green tea with
herbal mint leaves. Many kinds of mint derived from Europe and Asia are
used to make herbal tea infusions, such as spearmint,
peppermint, apple mint and the Japanese Hakka mint.
By carefully selecting the base Camellia tea as well as choosing a quality mint herb,
some remarkably spritely herbal tea infusions can be created. While Black Mint Teas have been
popular in Europe for a great many centuries, and used as relaxing & smoothing elixirs,
those made with infusions of green tea have been the basis of Chinese medicines
since ancient times.
Today, the most famous kind of 'Green' Mint Tea derives from the Middle East and North Africa.
Where the drinking of sweetened green tea flavoured with a spicy & flowery mint is a daily necessity.
Although freshly gathered mints are commonly used in home recipes for Mint Tea, unfortunately in many cases, the base
tea is often a dull & poor grade of Chinese tea, or more recently African or Indian green tea.
And that's a shame, because with the correct choice
of green tea & herb, as well as some care at the blending stage, mint
flavoured teas can be created of spectacularly outstanding character.
HERBAL FILTER BAGS - PERFECT FOR EVERY CUP & TEAPOT!
High quality paper mesh tea & herbal filter
bags make an convenient solution for premium loose-leaf teas, either for single cup
or teapot use. These bags are specially designed to enable full
leaf teas to be infused properly, leaving plenty of room for the

reusable filter sachets.
Perfect for a mug, teacup or teapot. TEA SACHETS OFFER: 20 packs (60s),
1200 sachets, $59.00, with EMS
delivery from Japan.
