A native of the Mediterranean, spearmint was revered by ancient Romans for its ability to 'stir up the mind'. Spearmint tea continues to be savoured for its refreshingly clear aroma and soothing qualities. If you find peppermint a bit too cool sometimes, spearmint tea is definitely for you. This herb has a rounded, slightly smoother and more grounded taste than peppermint, with warming and cooling notes. Very gentle to the palate and naturally caffeine-free. Sourced from the lush farms of Washington State, USA.
This is a decaf tea | Steep at 100°C for 5-10 minutes.
Spearmint is an aromatic herb of the mint family, the common garden mint widely used for culinary purposes. It has lax, tapering spikes of flowers similar to peppermint flowers and sharply serrated leaves that are used fresh or dried to flavour many foods. The aroma and taste of spearmint are similar to those of peppermint, but smoother and more grounded. Spearmint is an ingredient in several mixed drinks, such as the mojito, mint julep and sweet tea.
