DESCRIPTION:
Mystical mint green tea is a healthy and natural blend of pekoe gunpowder green tea from the tea estates of Sri Lanka and fresh mint leaves. An inspiring mint-flavored tea infuses sweet minty notes that blend beautifully with the tea’s mellow and slightly smoky flavor.
The Particular tea we’ve used is Pekoe Gunpowder from the Uva region of Sri Lanka. Green Gunpowder is produced by forgoing the fermentation process required to produce black tea. Instead, the leaves are steamed as soon as they are plucked and then hand-rolled into small round pellets Once Immersed in water, these pellets gracefully open to reveal a full leaf.
Gunpowder teas typically have a dark coppery green color, and produce a pale yellowy green infusion, a smooth. Slightly smoky Cup with a sweetish finish. The tea is highly receptive to the addition of our natural flavorings and produces a very satisfying brew.
The rich and strong aroma of this mint green tea makes it perfect for tea-enthusiasts. Make yourself a pot today and enjoy a cup of this minty fresh tea! This one is unbelievable over ice.

ADDITIONAL INFO:
Tea blended with mint (Latin. Mentha pipenta) is one of the oldest variations in the world of tea. From Armenia, where mint is known as Ananookh, to Khazakstan, where it goes by the name Jiyek jalbiz. to Morrocco where it is called Eqama, people have been adding fresh mint leaves to tea for at least a thousand years.
But even before it was added to tea, the bitterly sweet herb was enjoyed on its own, or in oil form, for hundreds of years before that. For example, did you know that Mint was mentioned in the Old Testament? In the Bible’s original Greek it was called hedyosmon which translates directly into English as the sweet-smelling one And a sweet-smelling herb it is.

This is a very good Moroccan mint & green tea. It tastes fresh & balanced. I love Moroccan mint with green tea – it is a sweet spearmint & tastes great together. This also makes really good iced tea.

I love loose tea- and this Moroccan Mint is a great change from my regular black teas. A wonderful light minty flavor. Great for pick me up!

This is very close to a tea I had in a Moroccan restaurant some years ago. It is very pleasant – a nice green tea with a mix of spearmint and peppermint. Not overpoweringly so for those who are not mint lovers.
Very enjoyable and would get again.

This tea is unreal!!! It’s so tasty. For it to have green tea in it, it tastes mostly like mint tea. The green tea blends into this much better than other brands. I highly recommend.

Montgomery Flange –
Tastes fine, not a very
strong mint flavor though which is kind of disappointing. It has more of an aftertaste of mint. I will probably buy again because it is a very good deal

I didn’t know I liked tea!
I was just trying to find a better way to get caffeine, and a friend suggested this. It’s really good! And it’s a very different morning with the tea than a soda; much better.

This is perfect for my tastes, just enough mint to counteract the bitterness in green tea. A little honey helps as well!
