Story
A classic blend of Chinese gunpowder tea and mint. The gunpowder imparts a flavor of earthiness with some vegetal notes, anchoring the brightness of the mint. Alone, it is floral, vegetal, and refreshing with a subtle bite. Great hot, iced, or as a latte with milk and honey, this tea is sure to lift your mood and raise your spirits.
Minty and fresh, floral jasmine and honeysuckle, crisp and refreshing
Details
Tea brewed with herbs, spices, and essential oils are known as blends. They can be treated differently than straight tea, as the herbs will mask the off flavors from over-steeping. To get the full flavor of the herbs in most blends, steeping longer will yield a more flavorful cup of tea. The art of blending herbs, spices, essential oils, and tea is much like painting a portrait. For a recipe to be enjoyed, there must be balance and complexity, yet the tea should not be masked beyond recognition.

Taking Good Care of Our Coffee, Our People, Our Farmers, Our Planet
Established in 2010 in downtown Floyd, VA (pop 432), Red Rooster was created with the simple notion of roasting excellent coffee for the owner’s existing coffee house. Soon, word of Red Rooster's quality spread around Virginia and up and down the East Coast.
Today, we employ 30 people while roasting some of the best coffee in the world. We are also the only coffee company in the country with a licensed on-site childcare facility for our employee's children.
While we've won numerous awards and accolades for our coffee quality, our true passion is in making a positive social impact both at home and abroad at the coffee's origin.
