Tasmanian Mint Green Tea

Tasmanian Mint Green Tea blends organic mint grown in Tasmania with organic green tea from Anhui, China. The mint is cool and clean, the green tea adds a light base, and the combination is refreshing — particularly good as a cold brew in warmer months.

How does it taste

Minty, cool, and sweet. The Tasmanian organic mint is clean and refreshing, while the green tea from Anhui adds a light, smooth base. The mint is the dominant flavour but does not overwhelm the tea character underneath.

Joanne's notes

We developed this blend because Tasmanian peppermint has a cleaner, more rounded mint flavour than what you typically find in tea bags. A few of our regulars at the Salamanca Tea Bar drink it iced in summer — just brew double strength and pour over ice or cold brew for over 2 hours.

For another Tasmanian blend, try our Tasmanian Huon Green Tea, or browse the Tasmanian tea collection.

Storage

Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place away from light and moisture.
