Tasting notes: Amber color with headily sweet yet herbaceous notes of summer in Southern France.
This monofloral honey made by busy bees pollinating lavender fields in the south of France has an exceptional flavor in its sweetly floral yet herbaceous flavor profile - just like its namesake flower.
Home to some of the world's most famous lavender fields, the rolling fields of Provence produce this gorgeous honey that will instantly transport you to sweet summer days in the South of France. Delicate yet robust, floral yet herbaceous, this amber-hued honey is a study in contrasts and will take you straight to the summer markets of Avignon.
Engage your palate with elegant honey pairings, like sharp sheep milk cheeses and a full-bodied Beaujolais Blanc. Of course, our favorite tea or tisane pairing for this gorgeous French Lavender Honey is our La Provençale, but this floral honey is also a lovely accompaniment to lightly oxidized oolongs like Shan Lin Xi.
(Please Note: Our French Lavender honey is not infused with lavender.)

This highly potent blend of organic medicinal herbals from Québec was created especially for seasonal changes that might bring us colds and allergies. A little bit spicy and a little bit fruity, this infusion has a beautiful character. We think you'll love the ethereal softness and floral bouquet of oregano.
Le Suprême is an herbal adaptogen which may help the body and the immune system to adjust to seasonal change and the effects of stress, with the added benefit of acting as a restorative to the digestive system. Anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-cold, this herbal tisane may help relieve headaches and stomach disorders, and it supports digestion while restoring strength, fortitude and vitality.
For lovers of Seasons Tulsi, this herbal blend is a recipe variation, omitting the calendula and adding in a medicinal herb, fireweed. The flavor is nearly indistinguishable.
We recommend our local Wildflower Honey to up the immune-boosting punch of this herbal tisane!
All Organic Ingredients: Urtica (Stinging Nettle), Holy Basil (Tulsi), Cornflower, Fireweed, Oregano Flower. Naturally Caffeine Free.

The traditional powdered ceremonial Japanese green tea, matcha has recently gained popularity in the west as a "super-food". As opposed to other teas where an infusion of the leaf is drunk, with matcha, the whole leaf is consumed. This, of course, means more antioxidants and more caffeine. Our Matcha Wako is enjoyed in thin tea preparation and is the second highest of the ceremonial grades (usucha, thin grade). It arrives vibrantly green and freshly sealed in airtight 20 gram tins which yield 12-14 servings.
Our matcha is freshly ground for us in Japan right before it's shipped from our award-winning producer, Marukyu-Koyamaen. Incredibly, Marukyu-Koyamaen began producing tea during the Genroku period (1688-1704) in Ogura, Uji. Part of the venerable tradition of Japanese green tea production (Ujuicha), over the ensuing centuries the quality of their tea has only increased. Still family-owned, their high standards are consistent from cultivation to the final product, forming the bedrock for their highly regarded reputation as one of the foremost producers of fine teas in Japan.

Tasting Notes: Dark amber in color with rich, sweetly smokey flavors of burnt caramel and toasted marshmallow.
Our Palmetto honey hails from central Florida and is harvested from late June into July. This rare mono-floral is revered by honey enthusiasts from around the world. Rich in antioxidants, it is said to have health benefits that rival Manuka honey!
Palmetto honey is made with pollen from slow-growing Saw Palmetto trees. These palms native to the southern US can take up to 100 years to reach maturity and make enough nectar for bees to pollinate them!
Learn more about the health benefits of Palmetto honey (and other dark honeys) on our blog >>
Palmetto is bottled in a 12oz jar, and is dark amber in color, velvety in texture, and smokey in flavor; we think it tastes like a perfectly toasted marshmallow! Pair Palmetto honey with Lapsang Souchong or any of our more oxidized black teas.
While some of our staff eat Palmetto Honey by the spoonful, it is also delicious drizzled on prosciutto pizza or on cheeseboards with rich and creamy soft French cheeses.

Tasting Notes: Subtle but round pale gold liquor gives verdant notes of fruits, florals, and greens.
Our tea aficionados love this profusely aromatic oolong from high in the Taiwanese mountains. Produced this past fall by Mr. Chen and his team, this harvest of our favorite high mountain oolong is composed of mature leaves that have been tightly rolled in the characteristic style of Taiwan.
Over multiple infusions this tea gives a profusely aromatic cup with aromas of heady white flowers, ground cherry, wheat-grass and vanilla. Absolutely intoxicating.
Though reminiscent of green teas in their flavor profiles and coloring, semi-oxidized oolongs like our Shan Lin Xi are just as re-steepable as their darker, more oxidized cousins in the oolong family. We recommend unfurling the potential in every portion of Shan Lin Xi over 8-10 steeps using a traditional gaiwan or yixing or 4-5 steeps in a Western-style teapot.

Tasting Notes: Pale peach-colored liquor with pleasing tannin, sweet strawberry, and refreshing citrus.
Fragrant and bright, this white tea blend is composed of wonderful fruit notes that will brighten your day! A blend of white and green teas scented with early summer fruits, this strawberry tea is excellent hot or iced.
Try Strawberry Fields with a delicate honey like our Basswood or really jazz it up with Mango for a refreshing fruit treat!
Ingredients: White tea blended with green tea, pineapple, lemongrass, raspberry leaves, morello cherry, sunflower petals, lemon myrtle, rhubarb, strawberry, and pear.

Tasting Notes: Pale, delicate liquor with mellow tannin and peachy notes of stone-fruit and blossoming orchards.
Rolled oolong tea from China is scented with one of our favorite stone fruits, apricots, in this delightful peach tea alternative. Fruity and floral, The Apricot Queen makes for a wonderful iced tea on a warm afternoon, or try it hot to lift the spirits on a gray winter day.
The warm sweetness of our Alfalfa honey is a beautiful complement to this tea, or make your cup a true peach tea with a little bit of Peach infused honey.

This highly limited, gorgeous organic blend of whole agastache, amaranth, calendula and lemon balm comes from a small organic farm in the Québec province, Canada. We rarely see herbals dried with such care and respect for their natural beauty and form.

Our caramel-y Palmetto Honey may seem like an unlikely pairing, but it really rounds out the flavors in this herbal infusion!
