Love!

An unexpected new favorite. It tastes light and comforting, and the scent reminds me of sage. I love the floral earthiness, and I now drink it daily. A nice, less assertive alternative to mint.

A must for any herbal tea lover

This was the tea that introduced me to, In Pursuit of Tea. I was given a cup of Mt. Olympus at the end of an extraordinary meal at Atelier Crenn in 2011. Herbal yet rich (not heavy) and sophisticated while still being distinctive and no cloying aftertaste. A true find! The restaurant was gracious enough to share the source, which I am still thankful for. This is a must have for the collection of any herbal tea lover.

This is a very fresh Mt Olympus tea and is soothing and grounding. A great tea to finish the day with.

The tea is perfect - calming and aromatic! I bought some Masala Chai as well which I drink with relish every morning. Thank you so much for continuing to ship during these strange times. I am grateful! I also sent a friend a gift of your teas and she was very thankful, too.

All my best,
