Blackberry Wild Black Tea (loose leaves)

Blackberry Wild Black Tea

Description:

Luscious blackberry meets smooth Ceylon black tea in a rich, fruit-forward blend finished with delicate cornflower and mallow blossoms.

The Experience

Blackberry Wild Black Tea captures the deeper, more intriguing side of berry flavor.

The blend begins with Ceylon black tea, providing a smooth, substantial foundation for the dark fruit character of blackberry. Blackberry leaf reinforces the botanical character of the blend, while blue cornflower petals and delicate mallow blossoms bring a graceful floral dimension to the cup.

Unlike brighter red-berry teas, blackberry has a naturally deeper personality—ripe, slightly earthy, and almost musky. Against the black tea, that character becomes rich and rounded rather than simply sweet, creating a cup reminiscent of dark berries ripening at the height of late summer.

Blackberries themselves have a remarkably long culinary history. Plants within the Rubus genus grow throughout much of Europe and North America, where their fruit has been gathered and enjoyed for centuries. Their familiar balance of sweetness, tartness, and darker berry depth makes them particularly well suited to black tea.

The result is a beautifully aromatic flavored tea with enough richness for a satisfying hot cup, yet enough juicy fruit character to make an exceptional iced tea.

Wild Blackberry Character

Blackberry isn't a delicate fruit. Its flavor carries sweetness and brightness, but also something deeper and more earthy—the character of berries gathered from tangled brambles rather than perfectly arranged on a dessert plate. That's the personality we love about Blackberry Wild.

The richness of Ceylon black tea anchors the fruit, while cornflower and mallow blossoms soften the edges with just enough floral elegance. The result moves easily between seasons: comforting and substantial when served steaming hot, yet wonderfully refreshing when poured over ice. Wild berry character, refined in the teacup.

Packaging: Our loose teas are sold by the ounce and packaged in food-grade resealable bags.
