A robust herbal tea blend with undertones of toffee, caramel, and Aztec hot chocolate kissed with notes of vanilla, maple, and brown sugar. Named for the Spanish word for 'raccoon', Mapache Herbal Tea Blend was made for those who crave the flavor and depth of a high-quality cup of coffee... but not the caffeine jitters. Roasted dandelion root and earthy burdock combine with the nutty, chocolaty notes of carob and chicory to produce an herbal tisane that tastes so much like coffee we surprised ourselves! As an excellent coffee alternative, Mapache Blend also shines as an iced latte. (2 oz. bag makes 22 servings)
Caffeine-free.
