Black tea with liquorice. A Dutch classic full of nostalgia and a touch of melancholy.
Ingredients: Black tea, liquorice root, liquorice, aroma
Liquorice is made from the root juice of the Liquorice plant. Although the Dutch are biggest producers and eaters of liquorice in Europe, it is not a Dutch invention. This honor goes to the Italian Giorgio Amarelli, who in 1731, managed to process the carrot juice into liquorice. The Dutch eat about 2 kilos (4.4 lbs) of liquorice per year.
Our liquorice tea is based in Ceylon (Sri Lanka). The British began to grow tea on a large scale in the 19th century. Ceylon tea has a refreshing aroma with a hint of citrus. Ceylon tea is often used in blends.
Pay attention! Contains liquorice. Avoid excessive use in combination with high blood pressure.
