La Minthology Verte - Organic green tea with mint

➙ Mint tea like you've never seen it, sexier than ever!

Shaking up traditions by combining Gunpowder and Chinese Sencha green teas with a blend of sweet mint and peppermint, supported by the discreet note of Moringa leaves and red pepper, we have created a mint tea with a unique taste.

➙ Your partner for the day

Silky, fresh and thirst-quenching, it is perfect for the morning, after a nice meal or as an early afternoon drink.

➙How to appreciate it

Ideally this tea should be infused for 2 to 3 minutes. We have prepared a delicate blend, softer and milder than the usual Moroccan mint green tea. However, if you wish a stronger and more pronounced taste, extend the brewing time and slightly increase the amount of tea per cup.

Mint green tea has become a symbol of Morocco and other North African countries. You can also enjoy the fine taste of “La Minthology Verte” with various sweet and savory dishes.

Like all of our teas , it can be cold brewed for the preparation of delicious iced teas in summer.

➙Ancient tradition treasured by various nations and cultures

Infusing mint leaves and other herbs was already a widespread tradition in Northern Africa long before the arrival of tea. It is not exactly known whether tea was subsequently imported by the Phoenicians or by the Berbers. Much later, during the Crimean War, Biritish merchants, having lost their Russian market, turned into developing the one of North Africa in order to sell their Gunpowder tea from China. Moorish traders then sold on the so called "British" tea into Mali, Mauritania and other countries in the region.

➙An exceptional blend

Mint

Mint belongs to the large Lamiaceae family, of which there are many species. Its name comes from Greek mythology (minth). In antiquity, it was used to embalm temples and houses. The Romans used to place a few leaves into their wine. It was not until the Middle Ages that we began to appreciate it for its taste and therapeutic virtues. Antispasmodic, digestive, antioxidant and invigorating, the mint infusion perfectly complements the two types of green tea used for our composition “La Minthology Verte”.

Moringa

Moringa oleifera, belonging to the Moringaceae family, is native to the plains of the Himalayas in India. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and amino acids, Moringa is now classified “superfood” and is the Ideal ingredient for detox diets. Its slightly peppery taste matches perfectly with mint.

Red pepper

Piper nigrum, belonging to the botanical family of Piperaceae, red pepper unlike its white, green and black cousins, is harvested at full maturity after nine months. Dried in the shade it keeps its pretty red color. With its digestive and anti-inflammatory action, it accompanies Mint, Moringa and the Green Teas in perfect symbiosis.
