Aronia & Alder

Un beau cadeau reçue d'une amie! Un goût à la hauteur de mes attentes . Je vais en recommander c'est certain!

Amatrice de thé et tisane de tout genre et ayant déjà goûter à plusieurs thé du Labrador, je suis déçue de celui-ci…! Les sachets contiennent très peu de thé, donc le rapport qualité prix est assez mauvais. Je comprends que c’est un produit de bonne qualité mais le goût ne m’a pas impressionnée, j’ai trouvé cela très fade !

Recently I ordered a few different blends and I was not disappointed. I have always been a coffee drinker, but these products piqued my interest and I thought I’d switch things up a little bit. First thing I noticed was just how relaxing the scents were when you first open the package. The blends are light, but very flavourful. I will likely be enjoying these throughout the winter months, and look forward to ordering some different blends to try as an iced tea during the spring/summer seasons. I’ll also add that the packaging is beautiful, and the shipping was quick.

This is my first time drinking tea with these ingredients. I can’t really describe the taste, but the combination is surprisingly calming. It has a balance of sweetness, tartness, and mild earthiness so I find it soothing. There is a mild grassy taste, which isn’t for everyone. I also like that its rich in antioxidants.The bag comes with 10 bags of tea. I don’t like overly strong tea, so I tend to use a tea bag multiple times before it is done, but with this tea, I was only able to brew it twice before the flavour was no longer there. These tea bags are truly premium at 10 bags for almost 14 dollars, and yet the bag can’t last more than 2 cups. The tea is decaffeinated, so I can drink it at any time of day. I also like that the bags are biodegradable so I’m not intaking any microplastics from drinking this tea. While I like the calming effect, there are other teas out there that have a similar effect for a much lower cost. If you enjoy quality teas, this is a good one to try.

I had been eager to try Labrador tea, and this Boreal infusion did not disappoint. It’s a lovely mix of Aronia, Alder, rosemary, goldenrod, fenugreek, and Labrador tea, creating a wonderfully woodsy aroma. One of the things I really appreciate is that all the ingredients are hand-picked here in Quebec.The 18g bag comes with a handy reusable zip-lock to keep the tea fresh, and the individual tea bags are triangular and 100% compostable, made from plant fibers derived from corn starch. There are 10 tea bags in the package—not a huge amount, especially if you enjoy several herbal teas a day like I do—but it’s the perfect size to test before committing to a larger order. At about $1.40 per tea bag, it’s on the pricier side, but considering it’s both local and organic, the value is there.On a cool fall evening, sitting on the porch with this tea is simply delightful—it truly hits the spot.
