Loose Greek Mountain Tea Organic 30gr

The Greek Mountain Tea was traditionally drunk by Greek shepherds as a relaxing after work drink in the evening. Our high-quality tea using the whole panicle of the Sideritis Scardica is grown in northern Greece in the Rhodope mountains at almost 1,000 m altitude by mountain farmers on small eco-farms. The cup unfolds the exceptionally mild, fresh taste of this gem.

Mountain tea was used by the ancient Greeks as a healing herbal, medicinal drink. Hippocrates, the Greek philosopher known as the father of modern medicine, hailed its benefits for the immune and respiratory systems. In Greece today, mountain tea is consumed most often in the winter, to combat the common cold and flu.
