Nectar Tea Company: Forest Air - Mint Blend Herbal

Refreshing and stimulating, our herbal mint blend of both peppermint and spearmint leaves are harvested in the autumn, where their flavours are crisp and vibrant, reminiscent of our nature trails at Nectar Retreat Centre, and around Bowen Island. This herbal tisane is air and sun dried in small batches, revealing fresh menthol notes that can help unwind, while remaining present, making it suitable for sipping any time of the day or evening.
