Taste Kentucky in your Tea
As a tea shop in Louisville, it is obligatory to celebrate our beautiful home state with our locally inspired teas. And with Derby right around the corner, we have had Kentucky on our minds.
These are our top 5 teas that have a Kentucky theme. And the last one is the top selling tea in the shop! All of these loose leaf teas would make a great little host/hostess gift. You could also serve them at any Spring tea party or use them to get creative and make some tea cocktails or mocktails.
Top 5 Kentucky Inspired Teas
Mint Julep
Refreshing and crisp black tea with the classic minty taste of a Derby mint julep. We custom blend black teas with spearmint, rooibos, and roasted cocoa. Make it taste even more like mint julep by brewing up a strong batch, sweetening it, and then serving it poured over crushed ice and a sprig of spearmint.
**Note that this Mint Julep is different than the one we used to carry.
Bluegrass Blueberry
Relax and sip this fruity concoction to get into that bluegrass state of mind. This caffeine free rooibos blend is great for winding down in those fragrant Kentucky spring nights. Tastes of sweet blueberries and creamy rich rooibos.
Derby City Green
Inspired by mint juleps and the fresh scent of Spring, this green tea is a perfect afternoon tea. Aromas of citrus and mint are combined with a touch of tart hibiscus and lemongrass creating a balanced crisp taste. With green tea as the base, this tea has a note of nuttiness and is packed an extra punch of antioxidants.
Louisville Breakfast
This robust black tea blend matches the Louisville palate with a light smokiness, a hint of chocolate, and an oaky malty finish. The black tea in this blend is strong and dark, a great compliment to the touch of smoke. If you are looking to mix it up from your standard English or Irish Breakfast, you have to give this tea a try.
Kentucky Morning
Our best selling tea and one of our personal favorites is Kentucky Morning black tea. We combine the flavorful ingredients of black tea, orange peel, and cinnamon to create a delightful morning blend that is great for everyday sipping. If you are a fan of English Breakfast or chai, Kentucky Morning is somewhere in between with a nice mild spice.
Thankfully, these Kentucky teas can be enjoyed all year long and not just during Derby season. Bring a little Kentucky into your teacup anytime and anywhere!
