98

I first tasted Ruby Mist tea in the early 90s while living in the Pacific Northwest. I was new to tea then and really loved the flavor. I moved away from the region and never forgot Ruby Mist. Living in Denver, Colorado I came across Stash Tea in a store and was SUPERBLY bummed to see they didn’t carry Ruby Mist in tea bags (they did in the Northwest when I first came across it). Every time I’d be in the Northwest I’d try to remember to stop into a store and buy some to take home with me. Flash forward to now and they don’t carry it in bag form at all! Anywhere! After a long hiatus from drinking tea I finally got back into it and remembered Ruby Mist. I ordered a 100g of it online in bulk tea. It’s just as delicious as I remember it. I’ve made it for visiting friends and it never fails to impress. My mother-in-law fell in love with it too but has a hard time with making pots of tea due to her bad arthritis. So I’ve had to make tea bags of the stuff for her. This is a really delightfully satisfying tea. The hibiscus gives it some nice tartness and a beautiful red gemlike color. Well balanced and relaxing. I’ve never tried it iced but I assume it would work equally well there too.

Flavors: Hibiscus, Lemongrass, Rosehips
