JUNIPER RIDGE White Sage & Wild Mint Tea

Good tasting tea!:)

Have been living in Southwest region for several years and always loved white sage. Drinking and smelling this authentic sage tea takes me back to the highland and it's open sky.

One tea bag is more than enough for the 1L Zojurushi thermos that I put this in and carry around with me. I had bought the Juniper Ridge shower gel for my husband and started using it myself because I like the smell. Then I was at my acupuncturist drinking their tea and realized it was from the same company. I didn't even knew they made teas! I couldn't find it locally because it was sold out. So I ordered it and it's like a savasana (corpse pose) in a cup. What I mean is, the flavor is really calming dandy grounding that it seems to remind me to take deep breath and enjoy some stillness while I am drinking it. I'm a busy mom with over scheduled kids and it's a nice way not only to get your water intake in but have a moment to yourself.

Amazing flavor and aroma packed into each tea bag.

I'll highly recommend this tea and I'm a huge Juniper Ridge fan and have several of their wonderful things like the oils, incense and some of the old body washes, I treasure them. Not too many companies this close to the source, careful and they do good work. This is my second package, first from amazon. I got this tea for the white sage part. I have some white sage from a friend but not sure if it's ok for tea. This tea has got a fairly strong mint flavor. I was a bit worried since I get a light allergic reaction to some mints but not to this tea. To me that says that Juniper Ridge really uses high quality and carefully selected plants, as with everything they do, it's real quality. The tea is very pleasant, the sage is powerful but not overwhelming. It has good body, refreshing but fortifying, evocative of outdoors and calming. I even left the used bag on the counter overnight for the pleasant scent. It's a special tea, feels real deal, not just some overmarketed cardboardy herbal tea with added flavorings. Next best thing to having a source and know how to get your own ingredients. Definitely worth checking out! My only complaint with this order is I received their old packaging. I know they switched to cardboard boxes earlier in the year (as shown in the product listing) but i got the old metal canister. Maybe it keeps better in the can, so a mxed blessing but I hope just the can was old stock and not the tea. Probably better to buy directly from their website if you want to skip the free shipping. Had the packaging been what is on the listing, it's 5 stars, definitely, and I'm sure the tea is fine.
