This is a special herbal tea cultivated in Greece, from the Siderietis family of herbs. Greek mountain tea is rich in essential oils and its blossoms, stems and leaves release the scent of fresh herbs with a hint of lemon when infused. The taste is fruity, tangy, with a slightly spicy, earthy note. Enjoy hot or cold and can be sweetened with a little sugar or honey, although I don't think it needs anything adding, as it has such a full flavor. A must to try in the Café or buy a sample. Rob

English Tealeaves sells over 125 high quality teas that are "cherry picked" from over 15 suppliers who specialize in specific types and countries. This gives us the flexibility to find the best of the best. We also blend around 8 teas ourselves that can't be obtained to our standards. For example our #1 selling tea, English Breakfast is our own blend that we created in 2002.

Our Cafe customers give feedback and we discontinue the ones that get poor ratings. We also look to improve our teas and will replace a standard tea, like Mango, with a higher quality blend from another supplier.

The teas are selected after evaluation in these six areas and then the scores are weighted to decide if they qualify for inclusion in our range:


• Dry leaves
• Dry aroma
• Brewed Infusion Color
• Aroma brewed
• Taste profile
• Iced taste
