Pure English Peppermint from the botanical gardens of Tregothnan, the C14th Cornish Estate near Truro is combined with a beautiful Mediterranean mint from a family farm in Beira Baixa of Portugal. To these more pungent flavours we have added some of the more subtle and smooth spearmint from smallholder gardens in the Shire Highlands of Malawi.
All the mints are grown organically without pesticides or herbicides in rich landscapes of sustainable biodiversity.
These herbal teas are air dried, slowly and carefully, to retain their natural essential oils.
