Arabica

Flavor:

Open the pouch and an earthy, slightly spicy, aroma greets you. As the rough-edged arabica leaves are prepared, they remind one of a brew a witch might produce for a forlorn traveler.

The tea is mostly clear, with an opaque gradient of brown to green. The earthy reminders continue, it smells like jasmine tea, and it has a simple taste that makes one think of nature. Its subdued flavor - and caffeine-free qualities - make it the kind of beverage you might enjoy as you settle down with a good book or get ready for bed. It also serves as an excellent alternative to black tea thanks to being uncaffeinated.

Brew time: 3 to 5 minutes

Non-Alcoholic Replacement? Yes - it has similar flavors to mead.
