GRAY & SEDDON'S BURGUNDY MINT TEA

Gray & Seddon's Burgundy Mint Tea
A premium blend of mint and black tea

MINT TEA is a blend of a black or green tea with herbal mint leaves. Many kinds of mint derived from Europe and Asia are used to make herbal tea infusions, such as spearmint, peppermint, apple mint and the Japanese Hakka mint. By carefully selecting the base Camellia tea as well as choosing a quality mint herb, some remarkably spritely herbal tea infusions can be created. While Black Mint Teas have been popular in Europe for a great many centuries, and used as relaxing & smoothing elixirs, those made with infusions of green tea have been the basis of Chinese medicines since ancient times. Today, the most famous kind of 'Green' Mint Tea derives from the Middle East and North Africa. Where the drinking of sweetened green tea flavoured with a spicy & flowery mint is a daily necessity. Although freshly gathered mints are commonly used in home recipes for Mint Tea, unfortunately in many cases, the base tea is often a dull & poor grade of Chinese tea, or more recently African or Indian green tea. And that's a shame, because with the correct choice of green tea & herb, as well as some care at the blending stage, mint flavoured teas can be created of spectacularly outstanding character.
