The Inspiration
Smoked perfection – our house black tea. This lingering sweet black tea blend contains just a whisper of the best lapsang souchong (black tea dried over pine fires) over a hearty assam. With just the right amount of smokey taste and aroma, the blend puts you in a snow-swept cabin in the pristine Northern Michigan forests. With the fireplace crackling, those ancient pines whisper down the chimney, flushing the warmth from your cozy fire into your cup. Relax, breathe, and BE.
