Teapigs Green Tea with Mint, 15 Tea Bags 37.5g
Most mint-green teas are built on harsh gunpowder leaf, which is why they so often taste bitter under the mint. This uses a Chunmee base instead, naturally sweeter and nuttier, so the peppermint sits on something smooth rather than fighting it. It is billed as Moroccan-inspired but carries no added sugar, so expect a clean, fresh cup rather than the sweet café version unless you add honey yourself. One of the more drinkable everyday mint-greens, and very good over ice.
Teapigs Green Tea with Mint, in brief.
Teapigs Green Tea with Mint pairs a whole-leaf Chinese Chunmee green with pure peppermint in the pyramid temple, rather than the harsh gunpowder green and dusty fragments cheaper mint-greens lean on. That choice of base is the point: it stays smooth and clean under the mint instead of bitter, picked into the Teas.co.uk curator selection.
Preparation: the rule that matters with any green. Drop one pyramid into a 250ml mug at 80 to 85 degrees, not boiling, and steep three minutes. Boiling water turns the green bitter behind the mint. It is lovely hot or iced, and pairs especially well with baklava.
