Story

Triangle Accent

This tart pink herbal tea blend is inspired by sour ale and Nordic-style coffee roasts, known for their fruit-forward notes with high levels of malic acidity. The steeped cup presents a vivid pink hue with smooth hibiscus flower and juicy rose hip pods creating warm floral aromas until the stimulating bright tartness of raspberry leaf hits your taste buds with a lingering citrusy finish. Naturally caffeine free, rich in antioxidants, and very pink. Try this tea iced with sweetener for a refreshing pink drink.

The Nordic roasting style can simply be described as a lighter roast, commonly known to highlight fruit-forward notes in coffee with high levels of malic acidity. This botanical blend is inspired by this style of specialty coffee roasting, and it all starts with a hibiscus flower tea base. The hibiscus flower is grown in Egypt and creates a vivid pink pigmented hue in the steeped cup. Hibiscus flower is also often called sorrel tea or “sour tea,” and it is naturally very fragrant and a bit tart. Combined with juicy organic rose hip pods, dried raspberry leaf and orange peel, this herbal tea blend is made to delight your sensory palate from its taste, sight, and smell.

TIisanes (Herbal Tea)

Tisane is the French word for herb, and it is commonly used to describe herbal teas. Herbal teas are infusions made from steeped flowers, herbs and other plant materials. Naturally, most tisanes do not contain caffeine; although a few do, such as yaupon and yerba mate. A true tea must be prepared from the Camellia sinensis plant, then processed for a resulting white, yellow, green, oolong, or black tea.

About the Sachets

The pyramid tea sachets are designed to give the tea leaves ample room to unfurl & expand as they steep. These sachets are made from PLA Mesh (NeoSoilon®) material that is derived from 100% non-GMO sugar cane. Each sachet is pre-dosed so you can enjoy a great cup of tea at your convenience.

It was some years ago that we Jon and Andrea, began to dream of serving a sweet, black cup of coffee to our customers in Arkansas. This coffee, the mythical bridge between the blended chocolate drink and a strong black cup, needed to combine the delicate flavors only present when coffee is grown and processed with love and care, roasted to enhance but not mask flavor, and brewed to highlight those flavors. This is how Onyx Coffee Lab was born in October of 2012.

Our mission is pretty simple: to source and serve the best coffees in the world. Perhaps this is really ambitious, but we believe it’s pretty simple. Customers want to taste differences in coffee, not only on the black coffee level, but also when espresso and milk are poured together, and on another level, when coffee is treated as a culinary item and paired with beverages and food items that you wouldn’t expect.    

The best business practice that Onyx Coffee Lab has and strives to continue is to be an owner-driven business. The difference between an owner run café, restaurant, roaster, retail shop, and so on is almost always evident in customer service, quality of product and atmosphere. It’s no easy task to translate passion for award winning coffee into a well-run business. We think it’s a carefully constructed balance of demand for excellence, passion, heart, and recognizing when we need someone to step into a leadership role. Every cup of freshly roasted coffee from Onyx has been carefully curated by us- from the very beginning with the farmer, through the roastery and to our customers. Without all of those hands, we are nothing, and we are there over each step in the process, demanding, sipping, loving, encouraging, instructing. We are Onyx Coffee Lab.
