to rule the desert Black Tea Blend - Collaboration w/ Monica Robinson

Tea Notes: Rich / Toasty / Lavender

Caffeinated Tea Blend

Made in collaboration with Monica Robinson based on her novella to rule the desert, this tea blend of the same name brings this desert gothic to your cup. A bold and rich black tea curls with smoke from lapsang souchong as the toasty flavor of hojicha offers up something of the dusty heat and haze of the desert. A kiss of lavender swirls through each steeped cup as an ode to the sapphic lovers. Let this tea coax you along as each word drips off the page and onto your tongue.
