Description

The Library Blend is a black tea with mango and orange flavors. Mike Harney describes bright notes of mango, accented by citrus, and complemented by lovely tea notes. The aroma is fruit notes of mango and orange, the leaves are medium brown with specks of dried mango and orange peel, and the cup brews reddish brown.

We blended it for the New York Public Library: the tin tells the story of the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building and of its marble lions (Patience and Fortitude), and every purchase supports the library.

Each tin contains 20 tea sachets.
Each sachet brews one 12 oz. cup of tea.
