Sage is a perennial member of the mint family, native to the northern shores of the Mediterranean. Much more than a culinary delight, Sage was an active part of the medicine cabinet of the ancient Romans. Manuscripts of monks from the 10th and 11th centuries document

Sage as an honoured herb among apothecaries. In medieval Europe, Sage tea was a favourite hot beverage and was often added to ale.

Today, Sage is popular as an aromatic tea as well as a culinary herb.

Vietnamese Cinnamon (a species of Cassia) makes a robust cup with a strong Cinnamon aroma and flavour like hot cinnamon candies, but surprisingly refined. It is a wonderfully spicy and sweeet tea that is perfect for winter nights

This European native puts forth an abundance of small yellow flowers on, or near, the proposed birthday of John the Baptist (May 24th), and is so named “St. John’s Wort.”

Well known, and used by ancient apothecaries, St. John’s Wort enjoyed rigorous use through the middle ages right up until the middle of the 20th century. Today, it is increasing in popularity after many studies have confirmed its historic uses.

Sarsaparilla is the root of a woody vine found in Mexico, Jamaica and Central America. Its name is derived from the Spanish for shrub and little vine.

When anthropologists began coming to the new world they found Sarsaparilla in heavy use among Amazon natives. It later gained large scale popularity in the US in the 1800's.

The taste of this tea later prompted the creation of "Root Beer." Try adding a touch of sweetener to make a mug of your own brew.

Senna is frequently combined with aromatic herbs such as Cinnamon, Ginger, Anise, and Fennel. Try adding fruit to make a tasty treat.

Skullcap is a member of the mint family, and derives its name from the cap-like appearence of the flowers. This true species, found only in North America, is also known as Mad-Dog Skullcap. Another species of Skullcap, Backal Skullcap, grows in China and Russia. Care should be taken that these, and other species, are not substituted for true Skullcap, as they have different properties.

Because of our organic audit trail, you can be sure that this is the true species of Skullcap: Scutellaria lateriflora.

The use of mint is documented in the Bible and in herbal manuals of ancient apothecaries. In those times, mint was a different plant closely related to the bland “horse mint” or “wild mint.” It is only through thousands of years of horticulture that we now have such a potently aromatic and invigorating herb as Spearmint.

Spearmint is appreciated chiefly for its high oil content and “double mint” flavour. We owe a debt of gratitude to our forbearers for giving us this wonderful and luscious plant.

Stevia is a small shrub native to portions of Paraguay and Brazil. Native indians of the Guarani Tribe appear to have used the leaves since pre-Columbian times.
Today stevia's active compounds are extracted for use in many foods in foreign countries. The herb in these teabags is in it's raw form and is your natural source. Enjoy!

Matcha is a strong, full-bodied tea milled to a superfine powder that brews to a bright green colour; it has the classic deep flavour and aroma associated with Japanese style teas. Recently, Matcha has become a staple in gourmet cafés and is used in all manner of beverages like latés, milkshakes, and bubble tea.
Sencha tea is a beautiful dark green tea. It is made with a special drying/steaming process that prohibits oxidation of the tea leaves while being rolled and dried, imparting a uniquely Japanese flavour.
Chunmee tea is a mellow and sweet tea, originating from the Fujian region of China. It has floral and smoky undertones and continues to steep well for cup after cup of tea bliss.
These three teas make an amazingly balanced and fresh tea that is enjoyable to drink, and can be appreciated by even the Matcha novice.
