Description

All-Organic ingredients: fair-trade certified pu-erh tea, red wine grape skins, blackberries, raspberries, lavender flowers.

This blend honors the cultural parallels between pu-erh tea and bordeaux wine – a pair of ancient beverages richly steeped in tradition and history… Both of these treasured libations benefit from the richening effect of aging, ripening to develop a complex, nuanced character. Together, pu-erh tea and red wine grape skins of various bordeaux varietals like cabernet sauvignon, merlot and cab franc create a smooth, supple sip with a refined structure and notes of dark fruits, cocoa nibs and a hint of fig.
