12 Apple Mint compostable tea pyramids in each pouch. We work directly with an herbal center and farm in New Hampshire who has been growing Apple Mint for over 30 years to bring you this herbal tea! A rare, heirloom mint varietal, Apple Mint is known for its sweet, fruity and delicate flavor. A very unique and comforting brew, compared to its stronger cousins Peppermint and Spearmint. Our Apple Mint is harvested at peak bloom to maximize essential oil content and dehydrated at low temperatures to preserve flavor and vibrancy. It’s grown in a permaculture way and never sprayed with any chemicals or pesticides. The scientific name is Mentha suaveolens. And just so you’re 100% sure! There is NO apple in this tea, it’s just mint leaves and is called Apple Mint because of its Apple-like/fruity flavor when brewed. Taste: Minty, Floral, Fruity, Sweet, Apple-y, Cozy Naturally caffeine-free.
