| Delicious and refreshing Xanadu Organic Peppermint is organically certified as having been grown and processed without the use of anything artificial or unhealthy for ourselves or the planet. A 100% natural product of the Pacific Northwest - where peppermint thrives in our cool, moist climate - our Organic Peppermint is certified organic by the Washington State Department of Agriculture. Naturally caffeine-free, mint is reputed to be soothing and settling of life's stresses, including jangled nerves and upset stomachs. Growing wild in the fields of Kubla Khan's empire, the simple mint plant has been enjoyed for its flavor and reputed relaxing and digestive benefits for unknown centuries. "Peppermint", a hybrid of several wild mints that was first grown in England in the late 18th century, combines the best flavors and therapeutic qualities of these wild mints into one plant. Brightly flavored, but without astringency, this organically-grown leaf has been carefully harvested and dried. The pure green leaves - known to botanists as "White Mint" - offer up a comforting cup when served steaming hot, or refreshing when served iced. This herbal/tisane is caffeine-free, and offers an aroma that is reminiscent of an English garden. |
