Tastes Like: orange marmalade, gentian, clover
Feels Like: an evening in florence

As the sun begins its descent beyond the horizon, everything takes on an inviting glow. The scent of warm oranges fills the air. Inspired by the classic Negroni cocktail, this bright rooibos strikes the perfect balance between sweet-tart orange and bitter gentian flavor. The first sip is sweet and rich, with a slippery finish and dark honey flavor. Bittersweet orange notes mingle with sweet rooibos earthiness. In the finish, there is a distinctly herbaceous flavor reminiscent of a clover field warmed by a summer day.

A tea for lovers of oranges and cocktails.

Mighty Mocktail

HOT - Orangey, nutty and florally bittersweet with a hint of anise, it's so orangey that it actually reminds me more of an Aperol cocktail.

COLD - The red tea and gentian is significantly more noticeable than the orange, which gives it more of a herbal, floral, bitter and boozy tastes that Negronis have. The orange is still very much there especially when sweetened. It makes so a good mocktail or introduction to Italian aperitifs.

Proceed with caution

About half the time that I brew a cup of this tea it has an extremely bitter aftertaste and I just dump it down the drain. The other half of the time it’s a perfectly pleasant cup of tea. If you have an adventurous spirit go ahead and order it.
