Rooibos Provence: Zhi’s new tea!

Hello, tea lovers!

Can you feel it?

That sense that something new and amazing is going to come into your life?

A certain whisper of intuition to let your spirit know that a new found joy is on the horizon?

If so, are you ready??

Say ‘yes!’ to our new organic signature: Rooibos Provence.

Smooth, sensual rooibos takes a fruity turn in this caffeine free herbal blend. Juicy black currants give this tea a burst of berry. Elderberries bring their signature taste to the table too, so if you love them in jellies, jams and pies, you’ll love them here as well.  Rose petals and lavender offer amazing floral aromatics but don’t spend too much time on the tongue.  Mmmm. Breathe deep!

We love all our teas here at Zhi, that is a fact; but it has been awhile since a rooibos blend of this calibur has graced our tea room. While rooibos has a tendency to be nutty and savory, in this blend, we experience this tea as sweeter and more fruity than usual. Sound like your cup of tea?

Our superstar rooibos has been Sweet Desert Delight up until this point, and we wonder: will Rooibos Provence take center stage? Only time will tell. Try some today and let us know!

 

Introducing, Violet Femme!

Pretty as a picture, Zhi’s new signature blend is a tea lover’s delight.

May we introduce you to our new hand blended original?

Please meet Violet Femme: a vanilla Earl Grey with notes of lavender.

Smooth, malty organic Assam tea is complimented with oil of bergamont, making this tea a ‘must’ for our Earl Grey fanatics.

Then, we compliment the citrus notes further with a floral blush of lavender. This makes the the tea even more aromatic without being overwhelming. To soften the bright notes common to bergamont and lavender, we round out the cup by adding vanilla. This creamy accent subdues the black tea blend and sweetens the cup by bringing in notes of carmalized brown sugar.

Balanced enough to be enjoyed on its own, Violet Femme is also great paired with cream and sugar. Bold, memorable, floral and flavorful, we hope you enjoy Zhi’s new signature blend.
