Inner Calm #5 is the fifth in our line of seven premium scented teas.
Our partnership with Minneapolis-based Intelligent Nutrients comes from the shared philosophy that what you put in your body should be sourced with integrity and made with care. They grow many of their botanicals on their farm in Osceola, Wisconsin, where they have their own still for making essential oils. Like us, they seek to challenge industry standards to promote a healthier and higher quality lifestyle.
We are excited to work together to offer truly premium scented teas. The finest perfumers and the best tea farmers come together to create something new, thrilling and – of course – wholesome.
Intelligent Nutrients’ Inner Calm #5 is rich and crisp in texture. It reminds us of the sweet simmering roots in a Chinese apothecary. For this soothing blend, we start with Master Han’s Qianjiazhai wild-picked pu’er from Mt Ailao National Forest Preserve and draw out the aromatics of certified organic Inner Calm #5 with cherry bark, burdock and dandelion root. This blend is powerful, deep, and earthy with bright, crisp undertones for an open invitation to tranquility and peace of mind.
Ingredients: Qianjiazhai 2014 Old Growth Sheng Pu’er, organic dandelion, organic burdock root, wild cherry bark, Intelligent Nutrients organic Inner Calm #5 (castor seed, bergamot, grapefruit, mandarin orange peel, orange peel, tangerine leaf, bitter orange peel, palmarosa, lavender, cardamom, orange flower, matricaria flower, vetiver, ambrette)
