Hand-picking herbs: a labor of love
Hand-picking herbs and berries for our August Tea blend is a labor-intensive process that requires skill and dedication. Our team of expert foragers carefully selects each herb and berry, ensuring that only the highest quality ingredients are used in our blend.
Herbs like Ivan tea and ginger are harvested by hand to preserve their delicate flavors and medicinal properties. Karkade petals are carefully plucked from the hibiscus flower, while Masala spices are hand-selected for their aroma and flavor. Rosehip berries are meticulously picked at the peak of ripeness, ensuring maximum flavor and nutrient content.
Once the herbs and berries are hand-picked, they undergo a careful processing process to preserve their freshness and flavor. Ivan tea leaves are dried and fermented to enhance their flavor, while ginger is thinly sliced and dried to preserve its spicy kick.
Karkade petals are dried at a low temperature to retain their vibrant color and tart flavor, while Masala spices are ground and blended to create a harmonious flavor profile. Rosehip berries are carefully dried and preserved to maintain their nutrient content.
After processing, the herbs and berries are carefully blended to create the August Tea blend. Each batch is meticulously crafted to ensure a perfect balance of flavors and health benefits, making a truly unique and delightful tea experience.
