A native of the Mediterranean, peppermint leaves were often used to crown luminaries in ancient Greece and Rome. Peppermint tea continues to be revered for its cooling, crisp aroma, deeply refreshing flavour and smooth finish. If you have yet to try specialty Peppermint tea, made from just pure peppermint (no added oils or sweeteners), you'll be pleasantly surprised by its superior flavour. Sourced from the lush farms of Washington State, USA.
This is a decaf tea | Steep at 100°C for 5-10 minutes.
Indigenous to Europe and Asia, peppermint is found near streams and in other wet sites. It is cultivated for its essential oil. Natural hybridisation among wild species has yielded many varieties of peppermint, but only two, the black and the white, are recognised by growers. The former has purplish and the latter green stems. The white variety is less hardy and less productive, but its oil is considered more delicate.
