Introduction to The Lotus Tales-MINT GREEN TEA

The Lotus Tales-MINT GREEN TEA by CONTES DE FLORE is an extraordinary tea blend that stands out due to its unique combination of meticulously hand-picked and hand-rolled Assam long leaf green tea complemented by T-cut mint leaves. These mint leaves are carefully sun-dried to preserve their refreshing aroma and therapeutic benefits, making this tea not just an indulgence for your taste buds but also a wellness boost for your body.

Exceptional Ingredients

At the heart of The Lotus Tales-MINT GREEN TEA are two key ingredients, both chosen for their superior quality and health benefits:

1. Assam Long Leaf Green Tea:

   • Origin: Sourced from the renowned tea gardens of Assam, India, these green tea leaves are known for their robust character and vibrant flavor profile.
   • Hand-Picked and Hand-Rolled: Each leaf is hand-picked to ensure that only the finest quality leaves are selected. The hand-rolling process retains the integrity of the leaves, enhancing their natural flavor and potency.
   • Rich in Antioxidants: Assam green tea is packed with antioxidants like catechins, which are known for their ability to combat free radicals and reduce oxidative stress in the body.

2. T-Cut Mint Leaves:

   • Source and Processing: The mint leaves are T-cut to ensure even blending with the green tea leaves. They undergo a sun-drying process that naturally preserves their essential oils and volatile compounds responsible for their characteristic minty aroma and flavor.
   • Therapeutic Benefits: Mint leaves are well-regarded for their digestive and stress-relieving properties. They can help soothe the stomach, alleviate indigestion, and provide a calming effect that helps reduce stress levels.
