ⓘYour precious tea really needs to be kept airtight and away from light once you open it - we'd strongly recommend one of our tins to keep it safe.

A delicate, pan fired Spring green loose leaf tea that’s been combined with an uplifting blend of Spearmint from selected small holders in Malawi.

It has a smooth, round mouth-feel and a refreshingly clean flavour. Soft and gently uplifting.

26p per cup based on 2g of tea per 150ml of water and 2 infusions.

Recommended Infusion Guide

  • Quantity

    Use 2g of tea per 150ml of water.

  • Temperature

    For the optimum infusion use 75°C water.

  • Time

    Infuse for 1 - 2 minutes, tasting regularly.

  • Infusions

    You can infuse this tea at least twice. With each careful infusion, different subtleties of flavour are revealed.

NaN -Infinity

How to infuse your tea is very personal, and these are just our recommendations based on experience. Please experiment with these variables to your heart's delight. These are our recommendations, not hard and fast rules. The most delicious tea is the one you love.

Our guide uses a standard tea cup size (150ml/5.5 oz) as a measure, please adjust the quantity of leaf accordingly for less or more water. Our whole loose leaves are of such a high quality that you can infuse our teas at least twice, and the second infusion is often better than the first, with different flavours revealed as the leaf softens. If you prefer your tea stronger, add more leaf, don’t leave it for longer (this will just make it bitter).

Malawi

Spearmint

We have added an uplifting blend of Spearmint from a collective of small holders in Malawi. This is a year-round, sustainable crop, mostly grown by women on less than a hectare of land. It allows invaluable extra income and we are very proud to support them.

Really surprised at its rating

Perhaps it was unfair to compare this with the incomparable NZ Waikato green but to my mind it’s not even a patch on the similarly priced Chinese green tea. Yes, it’s minty but the tea is coarse, over- tannic and unpleasant. I binned the rest of the pouch.

Delicious, delicate flavour

This was my first purchase of Green Tea and Mint…and I am so glad I decided to try something new: it’s delicious and has a wonderfully delicate, subtle flavour. It definitely will not be the last time I purchase this!
