I had been hanging on to my last bag of this for a long time and finally decided to say goodbye.

I’m totally not plugging for Juniper Ridge even though I’ve gotten paid to go on some juniper harvesting expeditions for them.

This is a pricey herbal tea (same price both on their website and at Whole Foods which is the only place I’ve seen it out in the wild), too high for me even given the quality of the material. The Bay Area is not a cheap place to headquarter a business. Regardless, this herbal tea is so unique, calming and refreshing that I’m hoping a sipdown note will spark others’ interest. Maybe I’ll stop pinching pennies and pick up another box once I get my tisane numbers under control.

Flavors: Citrus, Drying, Fir, Green Wood, Nectar, Sap, Sweet, Tart

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 8 min or more 10 OZ / 295 ML

Wow! Juniper harvesting expeditions? That sounds amazing!

Martin Bednář

Let’s go Steepster people there! I agree with you ashmanra completely!
But… but… I need plane tickets first!

derk

Amazing, yeah, if you’re a fan of hard work in beautiful places :) You know I’d gladly take you out for some harvesting, Martin.

Martin Bednář

Haha, I know derk. But going to Cali is long-term dream. And if I want to combine it with NC (ashmanra), then it is getting bit ridicilous. Too bad that US is so far, and me… enjoying ground transport… I think I have to fly both trips. To US as well NC-CA.
