Green tea with Mint

Rough on the inside and even worse on the outside; green tea and mint are a great cure-all.

A delicate green tea known as "precious eyebrows" blended with peppermint leaves for that traditional Moroccan experience.

Chunmee green tea, peppermint leaves

Dairy free, gluten free, suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Made in a factory that handles nuts.

What is special about this tea?

"Traditional Moroccan green tea with mint is typically drunk sweet - very, very sweet. This is because they use Gunpowder Green, a tea so strong that sugar is needed to remove the astringency. We opted for a more delicate chunmee green tea known as Precious Eyebrows. Better to change the base tea than your teeth, we reckoned.

about teapigs

Nick and Louise started teapigs in 2006 with one aim - to get the English people drinking real tea again. They meet while working for a large tea company where they learn all about tea and drink a lot of it. And the more they learned, and the more they drank, the more they realized something important: that there is a vast world of quality teas that don't get the attention they deserve. And so the idea of teapigs was born. By quality, real tea, teapigs mean whole leaves, whole fruits, whole spices and whole flowers. Without the powdered ingredients found in most tea bags. It's all in the taste. The tea in most bags is crushed and made so that by the time it reaches the cup, almost all the flavor is gone. Teapigs deny this approach. The whole leaves, fruits, herbs, flowers and spices in teapigs teas are carefully and lovingly prepared to maintain every drop of that precious flavor.
