Very nice, cold or hot
This tea is also one of my "go-to" teas for every day use. The mint gives it a nice kick and is great for cold brewing, although I love it hot as well.
Based on the traditional Moroccan beverage, this Fair Trade Certified organic loose tea blend combines gunpowder green tea and organic spearmint. The dark golden infusion of this aromatic organic Chinese tea is enlivened with bright and refreshing spearmint. The gunpowder lends a full body and light smoke. Traditionally served in a beautiful silver teapot, you can create your own authentic Marrakesh beverage by adding a generous amount of sugar or honey to this organic green tea.
Ingredients: organic and Fair Trade Certified Chinese green tea and organic USA spearmint
Our delicious blended teas use the same top-quality organic teas and/or botanicals offered in our single origin varieties, but are comprised of teas, herbs, fruit, and/or flowers of multiple origins and/or varieties. When blending our teas, our goal is to create a cup with a specific flavor profile in mind. Unlike single origin teas, which can vary from harvest to harvest (just like wine!), blended teas trade seasonal variation for year-to-year consistency. As a result, the formula and/or appearance of our blends may change over time, but you can rest assured that you’ll always receive an organic cup of tea with consistent flavor.
At Arbor Teas, we believe tea should be brewed to suit your personal taste. We’re happy to make recommendations to get you started, but don’t hesitate to experiment! When brewing your tea, your main considerations are tea quantity, water temperature, and steeping time. We recommend green and white teas to be steeped for 2 to 3 minutes in water heated to not-quite-boiling, just as bubbles begin to form on the bottom of the pan (approximately 170 to 180 degrees F). For the best flavor, use fresh water whenever possible. Try not to steep your tea longer than necessary, as you’ll extract undesirable bitterness from the leaves. If you want a stronger brew, don’t steep longer, just use more tea. And don’t forget to re-steep your tea leaves to get the most out of your leaf!

After trying this, I rarely drink any other green tea. The smell and the taste are delightful. I enjoy drinking this year round
Heaven in a cup! I ordered a variety of teas! Tea arrived two days early. I am sitting in my living room and enjoying my first cup! So happy i find this company! Can't wait to try all of them
I've been primarily cold-brewing this tea since I got some a few weeks ago. It's a got a refreshing and cooling dose of mint that comes out strong with this technique, and low enough caffeine content (especially if cold brewed) that I can sip it thought the day to stay alert but not feel the jolt of iced coffee or black tea. I'm glad that I ordered the bulk, because cold brewing means going through leaves a little faster than other brew methods, but I will top off with water to resteep throughout the day.
I bought the Cold Brew Iced Tea Maker from this website as well, and pairing that with this tea seems to extract the best taste from the Moroccan Mint. For those (myself included) who were surprised to find that the taste of this tea was lighter than they expected, I'd recommend that.
