Organic Russian Caravan - 2 oz

Russian caravan contains a premium blend of lightly smoked Indian Assam and Ceylon tea. Its name originates from the 18th century camel caravans that facilitated the transcontinental tea trade from tea-producing areas (namely India, Ceylon and China) to Europe via Russia. "It took at least half a year to make the six-thousand-mile journey from the Chinese border to Russia, and the voyage was harsh. During these camel caravan journeys, the teas took on the smoky taste of the campfires." ***For those looking for a strong smoky flavor, please try our Lapsang Souchong tea. Steep 2 teaspoons for 4 minutes in 8 ounces of boiled water. Ingredients: Organic black tea
